Ask HN: Feeling stuck Looking for suggestions
I'm a senior software engineer at a 5 year old startup in the bay area and I am fully vested on my initial amount of stocks.
I'm making a good salary (210K+).
My problem is that in the last few months I feel stuck, the company is not really growing to say the least and there's no more focus on big things to bring users in.
There's enough money in the bank for a long time but it just feels that I am (along with the company) standing in place waiting for something to happen.
Since I am the most senior engineer I am really lacking professional challenge and learning experience from my peers and it's starting to feel really boring.
I realize this sounds a bit whiny but I am sharing this because this weight heavy on my. Looking for suggestions and inspiration...
