At this point in my life, if I work in a tech firm that pays me a reasonable amount (when I say reasonable I don't mean top dollar, average or slightly below is fine for me as I have relatively low levels of debt and my wife works also) and treats me fairly I'm not that worried about other issues like aging tech stack or legacy code base.

Reasonable management allows you to work towards fixing this, although might not always make what you consider optimal technical decisions.

If you can get along with your colleagues, get paid on time and not have the boss breathing down your neck I think that's a pretty good job!
