Once when I was frustrated with my current Job at a large corporation, an experienced friend told me the secret.

He said, they'd value "predictability over excellence".

Meaning, talk about your goals, give an estimation and arrive exactly on point. It doesn't matter if it's your personal project or projects/processes where you take the lead.

Being faster than estimated, or finding a better way and switching while your doing it will not be appreciated.

This really unlocked a lot of success and explained many glass walls i've been running into before.
