My employer considers me a 10x developer. It's not a title I'd choose for myself. I'm the only software engineer to be on a bonus scheme, which is great.
But it means I'm expected to be available constantly. I'm not a one-man team but I tend to be the first point of contact for people outside our Eng team. It gets a bit much sometimes.

Make sure your enployer isn’t just stroking your ego to make you work long hours and take on more responsibility. Make sure you get the compensation you think you deserve not future promises..
