Do companies you've worked for in the past normally approach you about promotions?

Maybe it's because I'm shy or bad at self-promotion, but I've never had an employer offer a promotion. Even after getting great performance reviews, I've had to fight tooth and nail or go through a promotion committee song and dance that can drag on for months or years.

What I'm usually offered promotion for is having leadership skills. I don't know why or how, but it's something I naturally seem to be complimented and respected for, even though it's only that in the last year I started looking more into what it takes to be a good leader and truly try be better at it.

With fully remote work it seems the concept of leadership is changing and maybe being replaced with...scrum boards? I don't now how it works fully remote yet :) All I know is there are some successful full remote companies, but they don't really have good reviews on their leadership skills either when reading Glass Door.

Most companies I've worked for have just handed out promotions at seemingly random intervals.

You could ask too but it never really went over well.
