Thanks a ton. Very useful. I did think about such rules. (for example work 9 to 5 etc). But it's difficult to implement since I think a lot about the work even after knowing I am not valued. (I bring a lot of value to the table. They do know. But they are playing the politics). Good point on what 'worst' peers are doing. Most of them have quit/asked to quit/moved to different teams. Very few left now to compare to. They make a lot of noise all the time and fooling the incompetent management.
I still haven't started searching for job because 1) Work life balance is good here 2) I hate interview focussed learning. I am more interested in broader technology/problem statement/solution based learning.

You may be forced into searching for a job later if you don't do it now. Doing it now will be a lot easier than if you have no job and time is running out down the line. There is no reason why you can't find another job with a good work life balance and I don't completely understand the second reason you don't want to search for a job,it may sound harsh but it kind of sounds like an excuse to help avoid going through uncomfortable interviews. They aren't fun, but you will need to do them eventually.
