>Raises and promotions are more a function of relationships than anything else. Not being there decreases visibility and diminishes relationships.

Eh, while I agree that this is how it /is/ - this is certainly not how it should be. (I mean, management is a function of relationships, sure, but if you base Engineer pay on relationships, which many companies do, you are going to end up with a bunch of worthless sycophants.)
