34 years of experience... I am reasonably happy with my compensation and work/life balance. I am not reasonably happy with what I do 40 hours a week, primarily because I do not control the high level objectives, nor the resources to make it happen. This is why they pay me, to do their bidding. I'm ok with it because it allows me to make my time outside of work, fulfilling and meaningful.
