I've been at this company a few years, pay is meh but benefits are great. People almost never get fired, but that also means else most of management has failed upwards. The politics are ridiculous, my department is rudderless and most of my projects get cancelled before they're finished.
Problem is, I really care. I really want to do good work and I find it takes a toll to lie about things that are clearly false. And I keep watching and working on projects that are just wastes of money and it takes a piece out of me. I also suck at the political games. I like to tell the truth and I don't like brownosing, which is clearly expected of me.
So how do you manage not to care? Cause I don't want to change jobs just yet, I want the benefits, but I care too much about doing a poor job.
