People who lived in Switzerland and left - why did you do it?

My partner is having a hard time finding a job in Switzerland for more than a year now. I'm seriously considering moving back to another country. Anyone is/was in a similar situation? What did you do? I feel that if he left his job and came to me my salary wouldn't be enough to support 2 people for a prolonged period of time. And it seems that finding a decent job here without German is too challenging - maybe I'm wrong, but this is the experience so far (for reference l'm financial professional and my partner is an engineer).
