Go work for a non-tech Fortune 500. Expectations are low, and your success will depend much more on soft skills than any other factor.
Your TC will be cut in half (or worse), but your base might not suffer as much as you think, as long as you negotiate well.
If you find that you can't stand the low expectations and slow pace, you can always go back to tech. But it might help to spend a few years in a low-performance environment and find meaning outside of work.
