You're 100% supposed to grow professionally outside of work.

  • This is such a curious POV for me - I'd genuinely like to hear your thoughts on this. Who owns your career growth if not.. you?

    (If you don't desire to grow your career, that's a viewpoint I can entirely understand.)

    • some people see 'career growth' as going to seminars and networking with manager types.

      some people see 'career growth' as opening up a new technical manual and acquainting themselves with new stuff.

      I think it's import to differentiate; networking with managers and going to industry-specific (or even company specific) seminars offers next to zero enticement for me, but I usually always have the time to read about a new language or tech.

      In other words: If a growth opportunity arises, i'd rather it be personal growth.
