- Work crazy the first few months, first impressions last long. You get trusted more. As a result, you don't get micro-managed, get more freedom, and better projects.
- Give in-progress updates every 24 hours, don't wait for your manager to ask you for an update or don't wait for the whole feature to get done to give an update.
- Don't have any work assigned for a while? Help other team members, think of ideas and build and showcase prototypes for them, etc.
