How often should you get promoted? Ask yourself these questions
Briefly

"Career development is highly individualized and deeply influenced by the specific dynamics of each industry; the trajectory of promotions can vary significantly," says Julie Catalano, chief people officer. "Some may find rapid advancement early in their careers, while others might spend considerable time honing critical leadership skills before stepping into more senior roles."
"There simply aren't enough management and senior-level roles for every IC to be promoted annually," says Kyle Elliott, founder and tech career coach. "If you're looking to get promoted quickly and aren't willing to wait, you might have to venture outside your department or even your current company."
In American work culture, the focus often lies on climbing the ladder, chasing bigger titles, and higher salaries. However, the most crucial factor is whether you genuinely want and are prepared for the next role. Does it suit your needs and goals for your career and life? Will it add more than it takes away? Are you truly prepared to succeed in the new challenges?
It's tough to go back to a role you've been promoted from. So, assess your skills and identify any gaps before pursuing a promotion.
