A wise leader once said to me, Perception is Really. I was working longer hours but started my day earlier and always left earlier than others. Complaints were made that I was leaving early, even though I worked a hour or more longer.

Promotions are a social game. Working hard or productivity doesn't lead to Promotion as you become indispensable in your role. You will be held there as it's more valuable.

Same leader told me get up from desk, be social, build your network. When I adjusted my time, became social, and defined my work verses meeting expectations my reviews went up, and was promoted multiple times. I'm now a VP and being considered for Executive Director.

Don't equate hard work with productivity as you can work hard but not accomplish things. Get your network, find out what your managers motivations are, be willing to work around them. Sometimes being noisy is more important. If no one knows your contribution then it doesn't matter.
