> Many people here seem bitter or have an idealistic point of view

It is the opposite of idealism to see the world as it is. Pragmatism is rooted in acknowledging both the good and bad.

Idealism is ignoring the bad in the name of "pragmatism". Maybe you have to ignore it for your Public Relations metrics, but not for your executive or engineering perspective(s).
