Climbing the Ladder

This lesson explains how to steer your career in the direction of professional growth. As you grow within your organization, your financial compensation grows alongside, and you may not feel a need to switch employers based solely on financial prospects.

If you are doing well at your current position, like your company, and see promising growth prospects, it may very well be wise to remain fully invested and committed to your job. You will come across individuals who joined Big Tech for their first job, put blinders on, and remained laser-focused on their jobs, eventually rising through the ranks to the highest echelons of leadership within the same company in a matter of a few years. Switching jobs is not always frictionless and accompanies overhead. In retrospect, too many zigzag career moves may prove to be short-sighted.
