As a lead dev, I recognize that if I want the early- or mid-career guys to stick around and keep working on this boring project, I have to throw them a bone from time to time.

Not everything should build their resume, but some of it has to. It's one of my arguments for buy over build.

What about the senior folks? Do they not need any bones because they're given challenging projects routinely, or because they're content doing a job for a check because they've got the spouse, house and kids to deal with?
