I have been in this job for 10 years. There has been no rotation, no role change, and no progress whatsoever. I have lost my health and find it very difficult to do my job. I have shared this with management, but no action is taken. I have been in the same position since I started, and I am not happy.

Now is a good time to get your resume updated, clean up your LinkedIn and maybe reach out to a good tech recruiter. You almost certainly will be happier, and probably making more money, with a new role and change of scenery. Stagnation can be very depressing. I just left a company after almost 10 years. I was miserable. I now feel refreshed and invigorated... and am making much more money.

Please take charge of your career. I'm sure you have developed strong transferable skills. Look for a new role or new company. Best of luck!

This happened to me for 8 years. After i transfered to a new group, the compensation has been increasing significantly. They give raises to KEEP people that they want. If they know you'll stay for free, they'll do just that. At this point, youve stayed too long. Loyalty doesnt go both ways.

If you have been in the same job for 10 years without any significant advancement, I would really be worried. Both because you are likely going to be on the list the next time there are layoffs AND because you won't have anything on your resume that is going to land you a new job.

You need to take that initiative. You need to "Lean in." Either start your own "side project" or join one and prove your worth.

This all depends on your financial situation, but if you can afford it, just pack it in and go find something else to do. A decade of spinning your wheels is enough. If you don't make a clean break, at least start putting out feelers and find out what else is available. Make this year the year you find a new job, and that may help you recover your health.
