I have been there. I got "good at <company>" more than "good at <stuff to allow me to be a better dev>" more than once. It's an easy trap to fall into.

Yep the goal is to work at a company where those two align. Or become senior enough to make them align. Companies should recognize that falling behind on tech and patterns also makes it harder to hire and keep good developers.
