I burnt out after 4 years at my first job. It was at a startup.

I have been working 5+ years at my current job at a much larger company and burnout is unlikely. I get paid better and have less responsibility.

I'm undecided if the burnout was caused by the job or my inexperience. It was probably both.

Likely the job as in the management - I explained their role in my root comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39809297

Curious to hear what your thoughts are
