I used to believe that when I was younger.

Now that I'm older, I'm understanding of people optimizing pay and intellectual challenges. At the end of the day, people have to optimize for their own interests because the world sure as hell doesn't care about your or my sacrifice. Even my best friend who took a job at a non-for-profit for many years helping those in need eventually joined BigCo to be able to afford things in life.

Yes of course. You have to give in at a point, because you have no options, it's probably simple as that.
