I am not in a comfortable situation in mine. It is a bit toxic tbh. The rest of it seems normal - so many meetings, everyone fumbling around trying to meet the goals that shift around. I do like the parts where I get to write code though:-).

Nobody enjoys 100% of every day and every activity. But do you enjoy your job… mostly?

    I’ve tried to stick it out for a long time but yeah. The trouble is that my last position was that way too, and the one before that. I’m terrible at detecting such in advance, especially when they present well or even change after I’m hired.

    I had a fantastic boss once, but she got booted herself - get this, for being too kind to her workers, telling her boss that no she would not overwork us. The system so commonly seems designed to suck the soul out of if not people then at least roles like managers.

    But not everywhere is like that.:-)
