If you want to get paid more, then don't engage the company for "career progression". 90% of that stuff is designed by HR for "engagement" to keep you on the hamster wheel. A lot of that stuff at my company is kept under the retention category in HR, which tells you all you need to know.

If they like you, you will get promoted anyway rather than engaging in that sort of stuff.

If you want more money, get a better job.
