That's hard, I've been there too. I went into role where nothing was documented, and I built up a knowledge base to get all of the tribal knowledge out of people's heads. There were all sorts of manual scripts running "hot" on production to fix issues, very few of them documented. It made my ramp up time much harder than it should have been. And my efforts made it way easier (and safer) for the team and everyone who was hired after me. That year I got a lower performance rating. The silver lining was that I gained skills that helped me land my next gig, along with a nice bump in pay. I responded to a cold call email from a recruiter and from that began a more fulfilling career trajectory where I was appreciated more.
