As a rule of thumb...no future. Ultimately, it's a relationship. There will be ups. And downs. But if I look into the future and don't see it looking back at me... I update my CV and start looking. Life is too short for relationships with no future.

Yep, at one point the product team had dropped the ball and just stopped planning future initiatives other than articulating bug fixes for technical features they didn't understand. Before I joined, point blank I said I had zero interest in dealing with maintenance tasks or tedious bug-fixes. They started giving me bugfixes, I told them no. They started having me use my time to work on no-code dashboards for their boneheaded sales team. I churned a while on this and about a week later just moved on and got a $40k bump at a new gig. No reason to work on frameworks that have no future (in this case, Retool) or that you explicitly said you had no interest in doing.
