Does anyone have any tips on this beyond the additional "sales" type stuff where you have to put in a ton of extra effort to measure and sell your work?
I've found this to be true... to the point where some places even prefer manual maintenance to spending (potentially) a little more time on automation, even if that time would be paid back over the next couple of years.
I'm not adept at planning, selling my work, doing the manual maintenance, and doing the extra automation, as eventually that work becomes homework unless you get a boss that's willing to put in some effort here, which I haven't found yet.
