I love the creative pursuit of solving problems and all the related engineering aspects. Software development is however becoming more of a cargo cult and that is the aspect of working I find very challenging. But at the end of the day, I’m mature enough to understand that there is a reason why this is called work - you get paid to do stuff and I’m happy if I find satisfaction in 70% of the things I do.

How can something bringing value (read: money) to a lot of companies all around the world be considered "cargo cult"? As developers we are lucky enough that the market is so so wide, that if you don't like a company (heck, even just a person in a company) you can just change. So, nah, I don't buy it. Management is the real cargo cult, if we have to find one. People so aroused by the idea of mentoring (lol) other people (even more mature than them, quite often)... Look up "developer anarchy" on YouTube.
