If you genuinely are an X times programmer, unless you find the right environment, it is irrelevant. You will find under-utilization is common and so burnout comes quickly. As you can see in the comments, many places are unable to find ways to maximize your productivity. And once underutilized, you are of less value and so less valued. And even though these places will want you, they are a catastrophically bad match. Since the risk of burnout from frustration is real, if you value your career, you will need to leave such places quickly until you find one that can utilize you maximally.
