From your writing it is clear that you think very clearly and have good awareness.

I hope you succeed in finding a place where others compliment you, and you them and are in a team with a lead who supports you. I've been in, asked let a few such teams and we did amazing things.

Thank you.

I am extremely empathetic and honest. Most middle management at most companies optimizes for non-creative yet industrious which turns highly competitive over pettiness.

I just can’t see myself doing it anymore. Especially after what happened to me at my last role.

I had my naïveté taken advantage of.

If it's any consolation, that happens to everybody.
