I am 1.5 years out of school and have been at my job for a little over a year. I have a degree in mechanical engineering but ideally do not want to do that forever. At some point, I want some sort of manager position or something more along on the business side. I strive to succeed but I don't see that from my coworkers. They seem completely content just being an engineer and being a nerd the rest of their life. I like my current job but feel there would never be any vertical movement and I am not sure if I will ever get a huge raise based on performance. The workplace is good for the most part but there is no accountability system in place. Luckily, most of the guys work hard.
I am wondering how to make connections for anything in the future 4 or 5 years down the road. I don't really know how to make connections with our vendors we have now or anything like that. I know that there is linkedin and stuff like that but how do I really put myself out there for the future?
