Biggest mistake was not leaving sooner. I probably lost a decade of experience and opportunity outside. If you are not happy, make the leap. The world outside is much much better. More pay, benefits, actually people oriented, profitable businesses with better strategy and management.
Just get out anyway you can. The world that Waite will reward you on all levels 10x and family life will be amazing while being able to afford a better lifestyle. Don't wait too long, it gets harder and harder to change as you age. Get out now while you can!!!!
