Enough of that is funny 'cause it's true or sad but true. I work at a big co but not a full-on enterprise corp. I value my own time and work, more-or-less in alignment with broader initiatives. Learning new things and technical challenges makes the journey interesting, and it's fun/easy to get work done with most people. Sometimes I have varying degrees of communications (tech vs non-tech or grok/non-grok conceptual) issues but for the most part leadership has enough technical sense to make decent choices. So far, so good.
