I've got a question for everyone as we are all in the same realm. How do you handle working for a company who provides no motivation, very little challenges, horrible pay, incompetent developers, and completely useless management?

Also, no other opportunities in the area. Literally. So, "change companies" wouldn't really be a viable option.

    @manrock007: I consider it an employment contract, but it's really an extremely tight noncompete.

    Find another job or try to find ways to self motivation. When I feel like that I am developing something or reading a new language.

    You have to change the culture of the company from the ground up. Take the initiative and ... I'm totally joking. Leave the lady and move. 😂

    Is moving to another area an option? If so, quit your job and find another one.

    If you really have to stay where you are, have a few chats with your peers and superiors and suggest improvements.

    I'm actually in a similar position. I just keep searching for jobs that fit my criteria, try to power through the bad work, and relish the very few fun moments that pop up at my job. It's a slog for sure.

    Good luck.

    Try to start a new hobby side project in a different language. By the time you will get better and can search for other positions. If your have chosen a good language you also can work remote.

    @shittywebdev: Any more corporate philanthropist theories? ”Be the change you want to see"? 😂😂 Corporations, they don't use lube and they don't take you to dinner first.
