I am unsure about how to navigate in these “new waters”. I’ve read many of stories on Reddit about corporate jobs. Now that I find myself in this situation, I’d like to know what to avoid and how to survive in a corporate transition.

A few other things I will say is I’m not looking to leave this company currently and this is the first big employment contract I’ve signed in my life. I’m also in my late 20s (if that matters).
