Never make friends at work. As soon as your day is over, leave the fuck out of that place.

Optics matter more than actual work when it comes to promo. Keep as many things recorded as possible.

How to do the optics? I feel you have to be loud mouthed, which I can't do. Any other ways?

Couple of them:-

  1. Mediocrity thrives in most Indian corporates.
  2. Politics dominates more than you think!
  3. Job security is a myth.
  4. Most managers you’ll meet will be alot inferior than you in terms of skillset or knowledge but would be great boot lickers.
  5. Feedbacks are biased so never take them personally.
