Sincerely, .........
All I would say is; … DONT use this forum as your MAIN source of information regarding CX. While the concerns expressed here, do have some foundation, if viewed independently of any other information, you would end up with a rather slanted view of things. To borrow a line from Robin Williams, ... "Reality, ... what a concept!"
As with anything, there are advantages and disadvantages. Do your own research. TALK to somebody you know up here, ... especially people who would be in a similar position to you. After you have done that, … then answer the questions yourself.
My opinions; I have a good time; I separate work from home life, but still enjoy going to work; I will eke out a reasonable living and retirement; I am quite happy. There are worse things in life! Of course, everything is subjective!
Cheers
