Your biggest obstacle might be your own manager. Mine spent months blocking my transfer because losing me would hurt his metrics. Had to go over his head to HR just to get considered for an internal role. The sad truth is that many middle managers care more about protecting their fiefdoms than developing talent. Sometimes the only way up is out.

Unfortunately, I have experienced the same philosophy at more than one company.
I fully believe that. Thanks for the insight!
