Tangential but I usually burn out when expectations don't match reality.
E.g. When I worked hard to build and deliver something but then management rates me lower due to BS stack ranking. Or when I grind to roll something out judiciously but management is pissed that the rollout happened 1 week later than expected - even when there are no customers waiting for it.
In my experience, a happy job can easily turn into a dreadful place when management nitpicks on nonsense.
