Management is the real problem

Since the "techies" are at the bottom of the management food chain, satisfaction comes from rewards and recognition by supervisors and upper management. As we all know, the upper management cares less about people than the "bottom line".
My own experience taught me how much more the IT budget was valued than my own time or efficiency. As a result I spent less, but the solutions had less long-term value and took more hours to implement.
This entire idea of "IT on the cheap" applies to the techies as well. We are no more appreciated than the cheaper equipment they want us to buy.
Take a look at the budget. If the company pinches pennies on the IT, they will treat techies badly as well.
