You have a lot of freedom when it comes to features you want to work on.

"No rush" mindset.
Some managers are awesome.
Tools and frameworks are archaic. The company is aspiring to be the equivalent of FANG from Silicon Valley but lacks engineering excellence. It's hard to be recognized if you don't constantly brag on how awesome you are. Some discussions are endless, and it could take months to roll out a bigger feature. Ambitious projects with mediocre execution.
Be more open to bottom-top propositions rather than constantly looking into plots and giving empty promises.
