If you want the truth about what it's like to work for a company—or a specific manager—connect with past employees and have a coffee chat.
They are more likely to give you an honest answer about the reality of the company culture, what they reward, how they treat employees, and whether working there is a good fit for you or not.

Listen now | Ageism is real, but you can escape it. Working for yourself has many incredible benefits (e.g., freedom, flexibility, control over your calendar). But there is another beautiful side effect of solopreneurship. I discovered it a few years after leaving the corporate world in Silicon Valley and working for myself.
Set yourself up as an advisor and consultant so everything you have to offer can be given to clients who will value you.
Oh, and throw away those bottles of hair dye. You won't be needing them anymore.

Don't let a bad manager destroy your self-confidence.
No matter what they tell you, the problem is really with them and their poor leadership skills, not you.

Life changes, your career changes, and you change.
Living in denial won’t do you any favors.
Recognize that change is normal and it happens to all of us.
Prepare yourself for it, make a plan to time all of those ebbs and flows, and you can create a pretty darn enjoyable lifestyle for the rest of your life.
