I was there, although, my hatred was with the company and not the people I worked with. I enjoyed the people, but the organization was pure shit. Anyone outside of my immediate circle or managers more than 2 levels up didnt GAF about anyone below them. Policies were arbitrary and changed at a whim...and could change daily based upon someone's mood somewhere.
I had put in almost 25 years with this organization in various forms over the years but the last 3-4 years were the worst. I resigned myself to just waiting until they cut me for the severance, which they did late last year. The severance is very generous so I guess it was worth the pain and burnout.
Sat out my 60 day period and found another job and started the week after my 60 days was up. It's been more work/hours at the beginning as it's a new startup project, but it's been much more rewarding and I have more control over my work and the project as a leader. I'm very, very fortunate and extremely happy to be rid of that old place.
