I derive most of my job satisfaction from solving interesting technical challenges. I also have an ability to become interested in whatever industry I work in and I take pride in being a small cog in the system that provides goods and services that people desire a little bit cheaper, faster, easier or with better quality. That's enough for me.
Most of the time when I see those "lets save the world"-organisations it seems to me that they are either moonshot ideas with 1/100 chance of success or they are doing trivial work, duplicating the efforts of already existing organisations or doing things that have no measurable impact at all. I honestly think I would feel less satisfaction working for them. Sometimes I even see them bidding on each others names on Google Ads to capture donations from each other.
