> Talk to your manager very explicitly and figure out your career path. You can and should talk to your manager about exactly what it takes to get to take the next step in your career; a good manager will define this very clearly.

Asked this in 1-1 with my manager yesterday. Got mostly vague answers. I feel it's easier to get both raise and next level by changing companies then trying internally. Have seen good people leave the company, they'd Hire from outside and give that person raise/promotion + the additional training and time to ramp up.
