Of course, there is :)

Once you've been in a FAANG you can always go back. Now you have a few things to understand before jumping back at working on anything:

- Why you didn't like it? - Maybe it was your particular role, team, or colleague? - What would you love to do in life? - How can you move towards what you love?

If it is hunting for truffles, let it be and don't give a fuck about others' opinions. Do what you love, and life will be so much better for you.

They put on me on a team where there is one long term guy who is the only one who knows how the system works. Because of that he gets away with everything because they can't fire him. So my job is to be a backup expert in the system but he fights my progress because he doesn't want to lose his power.
Maybe present the facts with your manager, and in the same time try to jump teams.
