as an aside, here's a fun thread from awhile ago by someone else: What are some underrated careers/jobs?

p.s. leaving this open-ended per community theme, we can get into specifics in comments!

Internal promotions and retirement packages are rare. Get your promotion by jumping to a new company. Your company has no loyalty to you, and you should have none to them.

It depends on the industry and the company.

If the option is there, I suggest asking what the path is for a promotion internally. If a path doesn't exist or you don't trust your boss enough to have that conversation, then leave.
