Agree. There are people with 10 YOE and ppl who have repeated 1 YOE 10 times. Some people get complacent once they get a job and stop learning. The trick is to keep on learning. I have worked for a company like Amazon with aggressive schedules where we used to work for 12 hrs/day. One time I didnt go home for 3 days. I can say I learnt a lot, but there are better companies with mature planning where you would still learn the same amount. How different ppl react to toxic environments is also different. Some people may thrive, while some may wither. I say it is a random walk searching for the best place (for you) to work. You keep iterating until you find what you want.
