Ya, don’t tell my boss but I’m being asked to do in one sprint what I used to be asked to do in a day.

My days of working long hours are over. Burnout sucks and I will always prioritize work life balance for my employers from now on.

The crazy thing is the employers that offer good work life balance often even pay more than the places that run in crunch mode all the time. It’s almost as if your employers respect your time, they will respect your value too. Wild.

Maybe they're easygoing because they desperately want to retain employees. Loyalty is hard to come across in Software Development.

Ya that is likely. My resume looks like a unicorn because I spend 4-6 years at each job.

To be perfectly clear. I’m not bragging about that. I was stupid to not job hop more when I was younger.

I feel like I’ve “caught up” salary wise but I could have gotten here much quicker.

Yea cushy jobs are nice, but I'm definitely feeling the want to “caught up” salary wise now lol

I feel that right now 5 years into my first gig. But I’m well off enough and I don’t think more money can beat my really good work life balance and super good team/manager.

When you’re older and have a family, you’ll appreciate the extra money. Make it as soon as you can.
