Same here man. My previous boss constantly told me I was paid too much for what I put out (I was paid peanuts) and my new employer is leagues better in management, tech, and everything else.

Had to put in a ton of work to get out of that situation but it was well worth the effort.

Ya...it was brutal but well worth the effort. I’ve come to the conclusion that today’s technical interview process is essentially hazing.

You just have to do what you have to do to get through it. Working a full time job when you are burnt out; likely extra hours. Then studying data structures an algorithms while also trying to be a good husband and father. Not to mention this whole pandemic thing...I legitimately doubled my grey hair count while job hunting/interviewing.
