There are so many ways to describe overemployed people: job juggler, monetary mercenary, but mostly thief. I read an article describing how the author was surprised that the people interviewed were decent people.

The author continued to say that working for an employer means exchanging a salary for a promise not to work for anyone else, but OE is breaking the rules and they should feel bad.

Do you agree with this author or is this an extreme viewpoint?

I’ve put myself up for L4 promo this cycle. Assuming I get it, what would be the best next steps to optimize for long-term growth/TC?

My understanding is that L5->L6 is extremely painful at

L4->L5 is less challenging; however, I’m under the impression I can do this quicker at another company (if I leave after being freshly promo’d) AND get higher TC.
