I feel like I am missing out on learning opportunities because my teammate rewrites my code instead of reviewing it. If this is something you've experienced, how did you handle it?

I'm excited about an offer I have from a small startup, but I’m a little nervous about the risk. Do you think working at one helps your career down the road, or is it better to stay somewhere more stable?

​I previously worked at a credit union where software developer salaries were way under market ($50k–$60k), prompting me to leave and triple my income. ​I later discovered that the chief of technology hired a former developer and close friend as a remote, part-time contractor at a triple-digit hourly rate. This individual maintains a separate full-time job and works completely flexible hours, 20-40 hours. ​This feels like blatant cronyism. Is there any recourse?

My manager keeps pressuring me to go for a promotion, but the payoff is terrible. I was passed over last year, so now I feel good about my decision to resist. It's basically endless paperwork and corporate politics for a tiny bump in salary. I'd much rather continue writing code remotely, do my job, and stay under the radar. Is it okay to resist the push to move up?

Is there anyone else who experiences age-based discrimination at work? I'm in my mid-20s, and have been working with seniors who think I'm still too junior to understand complex tasks. I definitely have the expertise, but I can't seem to change their perception. How can I convince others that my skill level is more important than my age?
