I once worked for a start-up that perpetuated inflated social status symbols in a way I found repugnant. Transitioning to an academic non-profit environment was the best career decision I could have made for my mental health. Less money, yes. Less stress and self-loathing, absolutely and entirely worth it for me.

i once worked for a startup that called me a monkey sadly that was the last time i did python

how did you switch if you don't mind me asking? if someone is very unsocial has no network is it doable

Sorry to say, I found the position via networking.
