Depends on who you’re working for. If you have respect for their judgement it can be rewarding and as said, you get back to doing what you got into the field for in the first place.

However, if the person you work for is a hack, that can be a miserable existence. You end up conceptually swinging in the dark every day and lower your own standards just to get something past them. I guess if you’ve reached the point where you truly just want to get paid it’s fine. But it’s a depressing day to day life.
