Learn your local / state / federal employment laws. Employers will try to fuck you over due to your ignorance. If they try to pull something illegal on you, figure out who to report it to. I had one of my first employers "Adjust" my clock in and out times by a few minutes sometimes and really what they were doing is short changing me of overtime pay.
Most of the people I've worked with in the games industry I've seen get promised promotions and never gotten them or gotten them years after they should. Most promotions and significant pay raises come from switching jobs. 2-3 years at a job is plenty of time.
