I know that everyone here says to leave when it sucks. But I feel like having talked to plenty of tech people, a much worse pattern emerges. The cyclical hurt that is caused by leaving those harmful in power.

The constant churning in the tech industry of fresh-faced grads or bright-eyed high schoolers with some talent, their hopes slashed by managers/executives/higher-ups who squeeze them for all their worth, and then toss them out.

At some point, someone has to put their foot down and displace them. It's not constructive to let others go through what you have. Someone has to break the cycle, and abusers definitely never will.

If you see someone hurting because of a power structure and you can help. Please do.
