In my experience companies don't have long-term plans or vision for their products, and it leads to work becoming tedious. You come in excited with no understanding of the product, you get knowledgeable and learn what's good and what's bad. Eventually you fix the bad you can fix and learn what bad you can't fix, and then the frustration outweighs the enjoyment.
I've tried to bring up these kind of big picture frustrations with managers before, but they're always focused on surviving the next 3-6 months.
