I’m pretty sure I don’t actually have to do better than this, actually.
And I’m going to have to quote Sturgeon’s law here. “90% of everything is crap”.
If 90% of employers are crap, (or 90% of jobs in an industry?), there is going to be a lot of competition for the 10% that aren’t with the crap employers or with the crap jobs. In conditions like we have today, many of the top 10% will even relax their standards (sliding closer to crap), since they just need to beat their competition not be perfect.
All they need to do to outrun the bear is run faster than the next guy, not be the fastest in the world.
So not everyone is going to get one of those nice ones, pretty much by definition no?
I wish you luck with finding one, and making the move if your current employer sucks.
Many won’t, for valid reasons. And employers are counting on that. For valid reasons (even if we all hate it).

That is my observation.
