In today's era, there would hardly be any person who does not have a smartphone and internet. Internet has made our life much easier and social media has now become an important part of people's everyday life. Be it Facebook, Instagram, X or YouTube, on every platform people share their experiences and also express their opinions openly on different issues.

Many times people like someone's words so much that their video reaches millions of people within no time. Then there is a flood of comments on it. Some people completely agree with that point while some put forward their different views. These days too, a similar video is becoming increasingly viral on social media, in which a person is seen giving his opinion regarding job, promotion and change of company. After listening to his words, a good discussion has started among the people on the internet.

What did the guy say about career growth?

At the beginning of the video he says that if you have been working with full hard work and honesty in the same company for the last three years, then you might not like what he says next. After this he gives his opinion and says that companies do not promote an employee just on the basis of honesty. Their focus is often on the needs of the business and the best talent. He further explains that many times it happens that a big post is vacant in the company, but instead of promoting one of the employees already working on that post, a new person is given the job from outside. Not only this, the package of that new employee is also often more than that of the old employees. In such a situation, people who have been working for a long time feel that they did not get the right benefits of their hard work.

However, in the video he does not just advise changing the company. He also clearly says that changing jobs every six months without any reason is also not the right way. According to him, if a person changes companies repeatedly in a short period of time, it may affect his profile and CV. In future, while giving interviews for new jobs, companies can also raise questions about such candidates.

He believes that one should work in any company for at least two to three years. During this time, if you are getting a good salary increase, new responsibilities or promotion, then it may be wise to continue in the same company. But if even after working hard for a long time, neither your salary is increasing, nor you are getting any new responsibility, nor you are seeing any opportunity to progress in your career, then it is not wrong to think about a new job.

This advice given in the video has now become a topic of discussion on social media. Many people commented that in today's time, changing companies to get better salary has become a common thing. He says that many companies offer higher packages to attract new employees, while the salaries of old employees do not increase that fast.

This viral video has been shared on Instagram with an account named life_with_manik. Thousands of people are giving their opinions after watching the video. Some are calling it good career advice, while others are considering it as something that is not applicable to every person. At present, it is certain that this video has definitely started a new debate regarding job, promotion and career growth.
