How to Destroy Motivation in IT

I completely agree with this article. When you notice that your work has no real meaning to the company, it kills your motivation nearly instantly. I just stay because of the money and put my real efforts into some nice open source projects which actually matter.

Thanks for the reply Tezro. I think it's really unfortunate that leadership doesn't recognize how money might drive retention but that impact drives engagement.

I read a quote somewhere that read like 'passion leads to energy, energy leads to productivity and productivity leads to results.'

What kind of situation were you in/what kind of fruitless work did you find yourself doing?
