I think you vastly overestimate the impact you can have on your career at a company of that size.

This comment reminded me of the beginning of a Dante Alighieri's poem, for some reason:

"Guido, i’ vorrei che tu e Lapo ed io fossimo presi per incantamento e messi in un vasel, ch’ad ogni vento per mare andasse al voler vostro e mio"

"Guido, I would like that you and Lapo and I Were taken by enchantment And put in a vessel, which to every wind By sea would go to your will and mine".

There is much one can do to advance their career. There are winds that are favorable. One of those wind calls to support your boss and make them want to promote you.
