Finally, you got to work it. You have to actively work the compensation component of it, jumping ship when the comp isn’t there. You also have to work it and deliver. Don’t underestimate this one, deliver, deliver, deliver. Deliver when you said you would deliver. Deliver when no one thinks you can deliver.[/quote]
I agree with your assessment, with the exception about jumping ship. I am not certain jumping ship helps in the long run, unless the work experience/circle is large enough so as to never have any overlaps. Definitely in the case of bad/mis management it makes sense. Switching jobs just for the sake of dollars imo may not work out too well.
Now I would consider ‘deliver when no one thinks you can deliver’ to be the perfect blissful state!
