A few years ago I clocked like a 110 hour week. I was the director but also hands on so I was doing a ton of work but also responsible for delivery. Work was at a job site away from home. Worked straight through two weekends. I felt like I was doing this because I owned it. It culminated in a big demo for the client executive team that went flawlessly. At the end nobody said a word to me. I thought I did something really valuable for the company with direct visibility to leadership and they still didn't seem to care. I poured so much energy into that job and it just went nowhere. I wasn't fired on the spot but I ended up being laid off less than year later.
