Haha you know I used to move from company to company looking for the one that would make my 60 hours a week pay off. Ultimately I cared about things that these companies did not.

My employers and I were much happier when I switched to 30 hour work weeks and went to grad school part time :P

YES so much this. It's really not hard to see why so many people are doing resume driven development, everyone is overworked and understimulated. Nothing matters, the business doesn't care about good engineering, there are so few interesting problems, ugh.
