Yes. Losing 15% of your income to jump into an even more unpleasant environment would suck.

Your current job doesn't sound all that bad. Wait for a 10% bump before switching.

that would be horrendous yes!

i have a private office now and this potential one has an open plan environment, but is also more work-from-home friendly.

you are right in that it's not bad, just different from when i started and maybe i'm less adaptable than i thought and not cut out for this "new" agile world.

i think fewer standups would be good. maybe if it were a "walk-the-board" kind of format i'd appreciate it more.

i'm just feeling that if my contributions become less visible i'll at some point get "found out" as someone who just collects paycheques and never delivers. my manager doesn't read git commits or knows who had novel idea x, y, z.

maybe i am way too invested in work and should find other outlets.
