With the right team/leader, there'd be room for your inputs on the matter. Even if you find yourself in a not-so-good team setup, I'd argue there's still merit in letting your opinion be known, regardless of whether you end up implementing said solution in the way you were told or not.
You can only have that shot down so many times before you give up.
Very much this. And when people give up it can take one of two forms:
Either the person quits.
Or the person resigns to giving mediocre output and coasts.
Neither is good for the business and yet people keep pushing workers (not even just in tech) into that position to the point it's now a cliché.
