I’ve helped build an EMS that got deployed to 3 countries. This was early in my career. It’s been downhill from there, in terms of fulfillment and uphill in terms of money. This makes me profoundly dislike my choices. I keep lying to myself that once I make a decent amount of money I will go back to lower wages and more fulfilling work.

Interesting - the platform I work on pays far more than any other role I've had before, and far more than the majority of other non-executive tech roles in my country. So it's uphill in terms of fulfillment and money from my point of view. I've mentioned to recruiters recently that the job satisfaction is easily worth another $30K or more to me. It would take a lot to move me from my current role. But I recognise that I have gotten extremely lucky.
