Didn’t like my CS program, switched to Math with CS minor. Much happier. Ended up doing sysadmin, then devops, then back to software dev.

During part of that progression I worked for a non-profit that I loved.

Small tweaks (which professor you have, which boss you work for) make a huge difference in your level of enjoyment and fulfillment. Experiment with choices, try to figure out what you like.
