The immediate and poisonous issue is not being recognized or rewarded. Typically you're better off by moving on sooner rather than later, becuase it's unlikely you're going to stanch the organizational entropy, no matter that you're carrying the rest of the department to verifiably higher levels of success. OR, maybe you're not as smart and valuable as you believe, and you're better off if you STFU and produce.
