Good number of people in the company fo ryou to reach out to and learn from

- Too much politics. Your code quality, your sde abilities do not matter, the amount of bootlicking you do gets you promoted. - Dynamic personalities are frowned upon - What even is mentorship? Your manager will not look out for you, only himself - Be comfortable with inside jokes, credit stealing, name calling, making fun of others
