Because those are crappy companies. As I said many times over here: If you have a terrible manager/lead, if you are drowned in useless time consuming scrum rituals and can't get work done, if you are asked to work more hours you're paid for, if you're not happy with your salary or anything similar to this and you can't see this changing in the short term, just find a new job. If you already have a job as a developer it will take you almost no time to find something else. Right, your next company might have some of these problems as well. F*ck them too and keep searching until you find something you like. There are a LOT of great companies to work for out there, but it takes time and research effort to find them. I've left companies just after 2 months because I've given crappy laptops and forced to use tools (such as local editors as crazy as "Scite") because the CTO was a fanboi of it. I've left companies after 2 or 3 months because they were scrumb-by-the-book extremist who didn't had a clue what they were doing but scrum was good because the book the PM read said so. I've left companies because after 2 years was earning almost the same salary than when I joined while my market value was a lot higher (now I'm earning about 2.5X). So are you in a crappy company? They don't want to change their bad ways? Good luck to them, I'm not working there.
