I can sympathize with not wanting to do the same work over and over again, and I would never consider someone a bad person just because they're working on proprietary software. But I can't even begin to understand how the license "punishes" the engineer. Your employer refuses to use an external tool. Their legal policy is simply incompatible with the licensing terms of the external product. Just as their purchasing policy would be incompatible with a $1B tool. So you're hired to make an internal version of an external tool. Why not try to change your employer's policy? If they say they'd rather re-invent the wheel, aren't you just complaining about your job? Not external licensing choices? I'm tired of doing the same shit over and over again. Then why do you keep taking jobs to do exactly that?
