Things used to be different. Management, HR, Directors or anyone doesn't care at all about you, the project, the issues no matter how much you escalate things. Leadership lacks leadership skills, I can't believe I'm saying what I'm saying but it's true. As long as they can twist anything in a way so that it looks like there's lots of progress while there's no meaningful progress is a common practice and that creates a very very very toxic environment and can occasionally contribute to your work-life balance.
