How one can identify this?
Most of the money you earn in later part of career. The tax you pay in 10th year of career may be equal to CTC of 5th year in career.
So prioritise long term goal for lasting career.
True Sir, may I know how many years of experience you have, also do you believe in working for the same company for 10 years or keep changing every 2 3 years maybe?
Keep changing
Always be prepared to interview, leant this the hard way and after lakhs of potential money lost
What do you mean by potential money?
For the love of God, don't share more than you need to about your personal life, and/or problems with your colleagues. People are shrewd and quickly pinpoint when and where to target you and use the information you give to them as leverage. I say this loud and clear : people WILL step over you for their short and long term benefits.

Hey, I've heard this a couple of times but do not know how it pans out. Can you please give an example?
Back in college there was this kid who at the beginning of the session boasted about how his father earned 7+ figure income at a big firm. People would then pressurize him into paying for their meals everytime or for stationary. He'd always cave in to the pressure and end up paying even though he would be visibly uncomfortable and unwilling to pay.
A very small example, but goes to show how sharing more than you need to can introduce unwarranted mess into your daily life.
- learn to say no
- create as much dependency on yourself as possible by gatekeeping knowledge
- if you cannot convince them then confuse them ; works well in client meetings , code reviews etc (most of the time)
- never overshare personal info
Dependency and gate keeping knowledge - How? Managers insist on KTs and also it's difficult working with peers without sharing information
But without the other person's knowledge, how can we progress as a team?... i want to know like how we can gain knowledge without comming as a dick... like how to ask 🥲
Learn to say no. Lie as much as you can. Do the bare minimum
