IT Professionals Highlight Factors Beyond Hard Work That Influence Promotions
Two IT professionals share insights on career growth beyond hard work. One recounts working late for years without promotion, learning that impact and setting boundaries matter more than availability. Another highlights that promotions depend on demonstrating readiness for future roles, leadership potential, and visibility rather than excelling only in current tasks. Both emphasize that career advancement involves strategic contributions and preparing for higher responsibilities, challenging the belief that overtime and task completion alone guarantee promotion.
