Like most things in life, it's all about balance. Individual performance can get you far, but you can also be severely limited by your ability to participate in a team and make connections with those around you. Although it you can only pick one then I'd say solo working, since you can try to make it as an independent.

I agree with the perfect balance part. Thanks!

This is a tricky one. Generally, I'd say one combination of both is the balance everyone should aspire for. But if I have to choose, I'll say it's more important to be a good solo worker. Which one do you think is more important?

It is a tricky subject. Thank you for the input.

Depends entirely on the role. In some roles, individual contribution far outweighs team work. In other roles, teamwork is essentially the whole job.
