Switched from an advertising agency to a brand role about 6 months ago. In one of my first discussions with my manager, they said that goals aren’t overly important and they know how I will be progressing. I’ve never heard anyone else talk about goals and if they are required. Is this a red flag? Should I push for them so I can use them in the future to push for a promotion when the time comes? I feel very weird about not having anything to track against as I’ve always had them at past jobs

It seems very like personality metrics heavy, might have to compete with ass kissers.

If there’s no concrete goals to obtain for promotions, the metrics will be based on who is more liked, etc
