Things end users care about but programmers don't

I have to ask who pays for these systems? Is it the end user, or some business person in an organization?

In the latter case, the product is aligned with the need to sell the system, since the person who pays doesn’t use it.

If so, I recommend a consumer-facing job the next time you chsnge.

Unfortunately, as a business grows it will often transition from selling to the former to the latter, because "some business person" has a bigger wallet available to them then the actual end users.

Depends entirely on the industry you work in.
