Ways people move at NCG

Promotion

You move up a level, usually in the same team, because you're consistently working at the next level's expectations.

Transfer

You move to a different role or team, often at a similar level. Great for building new skills across the co-op.

Title Change

Your title is updated to better reflect the work you already do. Your level may stay the same.

Re-classification

Your role itself is re-evaluated because the work has grown or changed, and it's placed at the right level.

Build your plan (IDP)

What's an IDP?

A short plan you and your manager write together: the skills you want to build, why they matter to you, and the steps you'll take this year. It's yours, and it connects to your annual review in Lattice.
