Always be a yes man to everyone above you in hierarchy
Never pushback on those above you
Always be willing to cover/lie for those above you

If one is truly a principled person they find it tough and taxing to work and survive in executive positions.

I mean it's just a job. I don't know how much personal principles have to do with it. Do your job, have the back of those above you, and you'll get promoted.

Guy like this, who worked under at one point then adjacent, totally stabbed me in the back.

Just an awful person.



I couldn't do a Fortune 500, that's pure politics. I stick to the Startups and Small Companies, Exec Level. Most are good people, good leaders. Politics still exist - but it's mostly just kingdom building, battling over resources. Nothing too competitive.
