It is what it is.
You should be working on your exit strategy in your free time.
There's no non-exploitative work for us in this industry anymore, unless you're one of those unicorn savant programmers, it's the only way to get a real job with a salary, benefits, PTOs, all that jazz with none of those outsourcing grifters in between us and the client.
For the rest of us, it's eat what you kill with hourly rates and no benefits at all, it's get chewed in then spat out if they can't place in a new project, or work for dogshit pay and fake benefits in our home countries. There's no in between.
I've been there and it's brutal. Save as much as you can, and never stop interviewing, you never know when all those smiling faces will simply kick you out of Slack with no notice at all.
That's my two cents.
