I'm one of those people who used to work in a "mission-driven." job. As part of burning out and walking the slow road to recovery, I started to feel a lot of "mission-driven" people are really selfish ladder-climbers who are fantastic at marketing themselves and their mission. I'm not even sure if they actually believe in what they are doing outside of inflating their own ego/prestige/whatever. I'm not at FAANG and I don't earn anywhere near FAANG money. I know the above is really jaded and skeptical view of things. But I suspect more than a few people feel what I feel after a few years in the workforce.
