Bad Purchase posted:it might be different at smaller companies dominated by the whims of mercurial bosses, but in large corporations promotions and raises are entirely vibes based. performance matters, but only so far as it leads to good feedback from you peers and management. that means you have to please management by making them look good, and generally for your peers i find it's easy to please them by proactively helping them when they're stuck or overloaded, even letting your own work fall behind sometimes to accommodate them. This right here, people pay tens of thousands of dollars to have career advice that isn't as good as this, and this is succinct. e- I will also add another path that is possible is doing good work for a good boss who already has the vibes/mythology built up and show yourself competent and able to communicate. If they aren't a POS their good performance reviews and how they talk about you with other people when those people are considering for internal roles, can really juice you up past what you could have done on your own in the same timeframe. If they are a decent person and want to see good people succeed and not just hog good people for their own department. But those opportunities are pretty rare.

You dont get promoted because you do what you are already doing very very well. You get to keep your current job because you do what you are doing very very well, maybe with a cost of living adjustment and profit sharing if youre lucky. You do get promoted because of vibes, as mentioned before, plus the company has to actually want you to do more. If there is not funding for a new senior/executive whatever, and there is not an open job that needs doing at that level, it would be really really weird for a company to promote somebody to do a job it does not need done.

Okay here is a step by step plan for doing this OP. 1. Find the funniest post on these comedy forums 2. During your next call with your boss read that post to him 3. Enjoy your new senior position with a 30% salary increase, bonuses and extra pto

Ah yea also this was said before too but again: do not ever present a problem to management and ask them to solve it for you. Present a problem to management along with several possible solutions ranked by cost and effectiveness. The goal being to get them to point to a solution youve already identified and say “do that one.”

I can't actually imagine OP having a job where they would ever need to consider "promotions" or "future viability" if I'm honest. I kind of figured it was posting bad threads and their Professional Twitch Stream. How would a streamer even ask for a promotion? Who would they ask? I guess the real promotion is they get to stop streaming.

You start a steamer company and leave steamers on the hoods of cars After word of mouth gets out bout the quality of your work youll have to start hiring on people to leave enough steamers but thatll be the hard part - expanding the business without compromising quality

Do different poo poo entirely and also paid more? Be a boss? Be a bosses boss? Be the old grump that knows how poo poo works but doesnt give a rats rear end anymore? Some of those options only become possible when youve been there 20 years and everyone else who knew how to do that left or died.

In the before times, WFH was death for career advancement. If you don’t get face time with other managers and your director then you’re not going anywhere. In the new world whether it is or isn’t depends on company culture and what you do.

Now for the effort post: how do you get promoted, and how is that affected by wfh? You get promoted by 1. Already performing at the next level in your career 2. Making sure the relevant people see you doing this If you’re just starting, this is easy. Tell your immediate boss what you’re doing, how you’re doing it, what you’ve learned, etc. They should recognize your status and bump you up as necessary. If you’re farther in your career, this means expanding the scope of the impact of your work. Instead of just working in your group, you work with other groups. Or other divisions. You make decisions or take actions that affect bigger projects and more people. You materially affect how much money the company is earning or how work gets done. You do this without being explicitly told to do it. And as you’re doing this, you’re continually doing what you need to do to make sure your bosses, and the other managers, and everyone else along the line sees you doing it and knows you’re in there. So, wfh? In some companies this is as easy as if you were on site. In others this is impossible. And it depends on your communication skills. Just like talking people up in person, you can talk to them over email and slack and zoom, and in meetings. You don’t have to kiss rear end, but you do have to give them the impression that you’re valuable and you’re helping their group or the company meet its goals. This may actually be easier if you’re not great at in-person meetings. Your biggest problem is that there are people who are coming into the office that may also be angling for promotion. Depending on the types of managers they are working, this may be an advantage for them. On the other hand, if you’re not as good at social stuff as they are, this may be a boost for you

My partner works computas for a big bank, and was considered "permanent work from home" but now they have some new idea about "hubs" and since we live by a hub they are talking 3 days a week in office. No one on her team is in the state, so she will trade zoom calls in her quiet home studio with zoom calls from a cubicle office full of irrelevant chatter? Me and my buddy think this is their brain trust trying to get people to quit without laying them off. death to the fuckin business man

"meticulously document" triggered something that I find easier to do when WFH: Log what you do. It doesn't need to be "meticulous" but broad strokes journaling of what you did organized daily. One line bullet items such as:
I've never done this in my thirty year career until four years ago. I was always extraordinarily lucky with having good management who recognized what I did. And then I didn't. I pre-emptively started doing it because of that. It was a bit of a struggle at first, but the first time I was called out and being able to immediately cite "No, actually what happened was..." It also absolutely killer for end of year review processes that begin with "employee starts the draft". It seems like it can translate to supporting cases for advancement as well. I don't share what I do with my employer because it's not of their business. As for making it work, in my WFH workflow, I have three monitors connected to my personal laptop. I RDP two of those for my work laptop and leave the third visible for personal apps like OneNote for doing my logging. I'm not sure how I'd do it if I were in the office to maintain that same separation except use my phone or an actual notepad.
