Left a job that was sucking my soul dry. It was at one of the big tech companies, in a high-visibility, very popular project (lots of people here on HN follow it), but I just couldn't stand working there anymore, in part because of there being too many "rock stars"/"celebrities" in the team that though too highly of themselves. I was hired at a higher position, with significantly higher compensation, at a company that I actually care about waking up in the morning and going to work to give my best. And with way friendlier and humbler co-workers.
