I feel like the people who actually get the work done are the last ones to get promoted. It feels like those group projects in high school where one person would do all the work and the rest of the group would screw around, not contribute, and get an easy grade. Thoughts on this? How do you ensure that your the one to capitalize on YOUR hard work?

Leave bugs in code that only you can fix 🤪

Just kidding! Do your due diligence before you start your job that you are getting paid very very handsomely so that ‘recognition’ doesn’t really matter for at least a couple years. By that time build a reputation and pattern of being the MVP. After that time if you aren’t heard and acknowledged when you ask for a promotion , then leave. Churn and burn.

Has anyone here participated in the year long remote year program? My company is fully remote in the US and is in general supportive of me going but concerned about local and international tax liability. Remote year doesn’t share tax advice and our HR team is small. Curious to hear from people at companies who have done it before and if there were any issues from a tax or payroll perspective. Trying to get the formal approval from my company before officially signing up, advice welcome!
