Saw one post here, about one LL3 of Cloud Platform on how he got many promotions super fast. I thought it was some fake post but when I investigated and found out that this LL3 (J Was...) really climbed up this organization ladder super fast. Below are the timelines.
Ford contract employee between 2015 - 2017.
2017 - 2018 - GSR 7/8/LL6 (Not sure on which he was hired full-time)
2018 - 2019 - LL5
2019 - 2021 - LL4
2021 till present - LL3
This is really impressive. His department people mentioned that He is neither an excellent technical leader nor a good manager. So getting promotions is accessible without having solid skills.
People from the same department said that he promoted a few people like (W Fran.., B Pel..., and J Sch..) super fast and they were also able to climb the organization ladder very quickly.
How can I also get promoted super fast? Please advise.
