My greater point is: beauty (or boring) is in the eye of the beholder.

Some value a high-stress, cutting-edge environment. I don't and my employees largely don't either. Boring == predictable to us.

We are definitely not "move fast and break things" like NPM is. We move appropriately fast while de-risking our customers long-term.

My suggestion: figure out what kind of boring/not boring you like, and find a job that shares those values.

i didn't meant to be critical i trully wanna what businesses are generally seen as boring. as someone who just doesn't have much exposure i only recognize retail businesses. I have no idea what type of businesses are in all the office buildings everywhere.

I did not take your question as critical at all. :)
