Opinion on personal career management
I feel being friendly and professional, rather than being friends with everyone at your workplace, is the way ahead if you wish to have a long and stable career.
Rather than complicating stuff, have short term plans:
Evaluate your situation ever 3-4 years on the following parameters:
1. Are you learning anything new from the day-to-day work that you do? Is there enough scope for learning and development?
2. Is there recognition for your work that you do from your team? Are you feeling appreciated?
3. Are you being paid fairly? Are you able to pay your monthly bills and save/invest for future?
I feel planning and execution is the key.
Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Great advice! A balance of professionalism and friendliness definitely helps in the long run. Checking in on key factors like learning and recognition is so important!

It's easy to get caught up in work, but taking a step back and evaluating things every few years is a game-changer.

Technically its a great advice, But in real life situation. Once the person becomes comfortable in doing the same job everyday they don't leave and stick to it. Few one them actually work on the pointers you mentioned above

How do you define 'recognition'? Is it verbal praise, promotions, or something else?
