SH,
I used to work for a utilities company. now I am working for a company that sells equipments to produce one of the utilities. currently, I have a job offer from another utilities company and my 2nd interview is with a utilities equipment supplier. can't run away from utilities man. utilities here means power, gas, compressed air, steam, water. but actually my skills is applicable in any company that has a commercial or contracts management position. I do pricing proposal, BD, contracts review, negotiation and stuff like that.
Your company must be quite a well known company for people to say that. I guess you are not very comfortable with the culture, the way they work. if that is the case, it's really a matter of time bf you will really move from your job. it will depends on your tolerance. I didn't quite like the culture in my ex company as well, it look me 2 years to manage to leave the company because I decide to "ren" and gain more knowledge. also now the market is better. previously, I can't even apply for something with my job scope.
