I hear you. So burned out doing the same thing over and over again. What pushed me over the edge recently is management pushing for faster velocity for a service that is utterly meaningless. No customer is waiting for it. No savings of money. No really awesome outcome. But, it must be done faaassst. Has anyone asked why? And in that question, I found the root cause of the problem. I figured out that management wants me to finish this ASAP because it is affecting their ratings as compared to peer managers. Not because it brings any meaning to anyone. Not because it will help any customer. Not because some $$ is on the line. Certainly not because they want to promote me. And I realized that I cannot work hard for meaningless deadlines that make some random manager look good. It's just not me. For my next job, I am hoping to find something that serves the company, the product or some real vision. If I work for a manager's ratings, I will burn out again.
