Yes. The codebase is best described as a giant pile of hacks.

It's the culture more than the tech that causes this to happen. Every time I offer to refactor I'm told to fix it the fastest way and that's how we've been doing it for 10+years.

Ok, as someone with a strong dislike for modern js I still feel sorry about this.

Sounds like it's time to get out then. I don't know how hard that would be as you said you moved cross-country, so you could be anywhere (in the US I'm guessing). Remote work is always handy.
