Hi! Former Studies in Women and Gender (SWAG) major here. I absolutely loathed the first class I took and thought it was a bunch of bullshit. Fast forward to present day - I ended up doing SWAG as a double major with sociology, started working in a hospital setting, now work as an RN, and proudly call myself a feminist (as my username suggests). I would highly, highly recommend it to anyone who wants to expand their horizons and critical thinking skills. Although I'm now a nurse working on a graduate degree, I find that I use the skills I gained in that curriculum every day.
To answer your questions more specifically:
-Women's studies can lead to a lot of different career fields (social work, nursing, counseling, academic tracks, etc.) but I think it is probably best to double major and pair it with another, more vocational degree if possible. Ultimately, it can be tough to find a job with ANY liberal arts degree, so you have to take care of yourself while you pursue your interests academically.
If I may recommend a further reading - Feminist Thought by Rosemarie Tong completely changed my worldview and helped me understand feminism and why I identify myself as a feminist. It's available used for $5 on Amazon. :)
