Sounds very similar to my early 2020 - mid 2022. Got a "dream role" at Apple that utilized my niche expertise, was assigned to a high-value component of a high-impact project that sounded like a perfect fit.

2022 comes around and we have a barely functional prototype that was initially due to be shipped in mid 2021, constant turn-over in software engineering and product management, the front-end that had been build didn't align with the back-end due to a complete lack of project coordination, but felt tied to the role due to stock grants.

Left to join a 4-person start-up founded by one of my good friends from college and haven't looked back since :)

Ha! Glad to see I’m not the only one.
