I've came to terms with that, but I am stuck here until I finish my two classes for my degree. I just wanted to ensure that this workplace environment is indeed not normal before I uproot and move several hours away, just to be right back in this type of environment. I think my best bet for now would be to stay where I am for the next few months to gain experience, graduate, and find something else. | |

I'd add to your last sentence to recommend focusing on producing excellent work and building personal relationships with the users of their product that they can use a references for a move into a better job in the near future. Those of us who have been around a few years recognize these environments and can read between the lines without the applicant bad-mouthing the former employer. | |
