QuixoticgeekBurnout is a major problem in the IT industry, not just in software development. Insane on call rotas, poor management practices. They are incredibly widespread. Even in the poster child MAAAD companies. Especially at MAAAD.
You've all seen the joke. "What's the difference between a programmer and a lightbulb? The lightbulb stops working when it's burntout". But it cuts really really deep. I see so many people in this industry who are almost destroyed by burnout.
