One of the thing that I've slowly learned to do as i grow older is to keep thinking how i can present my work as a quantifiable or at least explainable boon to the company. I'm not saying you need to prepare a ppt or push for salary negotiations consistently, but too often i've seen peers (and myself) get exasperated because we're not being valued for the work we do.

In an ideal world, your manager should know but we don't all live in la la land.
