Honestly, if timing had been different I would've waited six months longer to take a five month hiatus prior to looking for work again.

I'm at a fantastic startup after leaving amazon and couldn't be happier about what I'm working on or the people I work with.

However, if I was facing burn-out currently and had $10-20k in my emergency fund I'd 100% just wait out covid for at least a year.

Leaving FAANG was the best thing I've done in the past 4 years, best of luck recovering and re-charging from your burn-out my friend!
