At what point does being the "go-to person" at work become a problem? More responsibility can be great, but sometimes it feels like top performers just get rewarded with more work. Have you experienced this?

Yup. Start working on being less responsive, and tracking your work. Don’t take on more — especially if you’re not being compensated for it.

Any tips for how to better implement feedback on drafts? My work is so heavily redlined that I struggle to consistently follow through with every comment/feedback. I am in patent prosecution, so it is a lot of detailed technical writing, but is also fairly formulaic, which is nice. Thankfully the partner I work with is extremely patient and a very good teacher, I would just like to be better at learning from his very thorough feedback.

With so much uncertainty in the economy and waves of layoffs that have hit tech especially hard... do we think there's really such a thing as a recession-proof job anymore if you're not an "essential worker"?
