I've worked in many places and my impression is that, , workplaces and managers are incredibly diverse, on basically any possible dimension. A workplace that suits your needs definitely exists, the question is how to find it.

In my case, I've just randomly stumbled upon into it some time ago and I'll probably stick with it for as long as possible (Before that, I've mostly had jobs that I felt were a not a great fit). Unfortunately, "randomly stumbling upon" is not much of a strategy, but I guess it's points to changing jobs often. I don't believe that the important aspects of a job can be sussed out during an interview, so you essentially need to take a chance on a job, join the company and, if that's not what you were looking for, leave 1-2 years later. Repeat until satisfied.
