I was in this exact situation. The WLB was awesome, good paycheck, good job, really good teammates. But that feeling of knowing you could do way more just by changing job is maddening. But I had no recognition in my work which was really the worst part actually, for instance, over the course of a year, I increased the team efficiency by 2500%, working on the build/deploy time and feedback loop.
They just told me that they didn't care about tooling, so it couldn't play in my favor for a promotion. I deserved a raise and a promotion, I complained, during one on one(s), like 10s of them, on the course of a full year. They just didn't care. Basically what they told me, over and over, is that they were already paying the most in the area. I finally left, for a 40% raise and a job that is way more recognised and enjoyable. |
