If you don't like something about your job/org, speak up and let management know.
If nothing happens, try to spearhead some change. It's your job! Sometimes the lower levels can see value that upper levels can't.
If you can't change it, cope.
If you can't cope, then leave.
Anything you want to say in an exit interview, you should have spoken up about already in step 1.
If there's something you haven't spoken up about, then it's probably for a reason. Just leave it. No need to be a martyr for your ex-colleagues, as it's only perceived. You have no idea the complexities of running a multi billion dollar tech organization.

- bsuvc 5y ago> try to spearhead some change. It's your job! To an extent. The key is to have a limit. Depending on the organization and your position in it, it can take a tremendous amount of mental energy and effort to accomplish anything, having a negative effect on your mental and physical health. Is that cost worth fixing something that doesn't even belong to you? I've learned this lesson the hard way, both successfully and unsuccessfully. Now I have a much lower threshold of what effort I am willing to exert to help a company change.
