I left excel after 3 years to become an HR Generalist. I loved what I did, especially recruiting and interviewing - and for me, I wanted to take what I learned into the HR field. I liked my client relationships too and I miss that part of it. Personally, I had strong friendships with my team and with my team lead. We had a lot of fun at work, laughed a lot, ate lunch together, and gave each other a lot of support. I liked the recognition I received and I learned how to balance many things at the same time. I think I work faster in what I do now because of what I learned at excel. It's a benefit to my future in HR. I'd never want to have started out anywhere else. The company was supportive of me when I decided to make a change and I still have friends there. I would recommend it to anyone who loves people and wants to be involved.
