My own experience, 15 years ago worked in Corporate America, best job I ever had while working for someone else. Tons of money doing nothing. For two years it was amazing. Third year, I started to interact more with the C-suite. And it all went downhill. I brought in more money and more new money than anyone else and that started to cause friction with other C-execs. One meeting set up to iron out issues, the lying was so pervasive I just quit right then and there. In fact, looking back, the whole 3rd year was like some insane high school themed film noir.

Have talked with friends and they confirm, most execs they know aren't there on merit but on toxicity.

Yes? No? Shades of grey?
