[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How often are these meetings? I definitely have my video on in scheduled meetings with my manager, or other one on ones where the others have their video on. It makes everyone feel.more engaged.

If these meeting are weekly or less frequent than that, you should take the time to chat as well. Doesn't have to be very personal, just casual chatter. The people part and "getting to know you" is a real thing and a skill to hone, if you care about your manager's view of you and career progression more generally.[/quote]

OP Here- Yes soft skills are increasingly more important than the work. I have had a really hard time with my soft skills. I don't really like to get to know people or hear about their personal lives. I wish my boss would turn off the video and I didn't have to look at their face. I like keeping the work about work but that has not gotten me far in my professional life.

Yes. I agree that the video should be on. I started with the video on until my boss made a comment about my appearance. I didn't tell my boss that their comment made me uncomfortable. But I decided not to turn the video on again. I want to get along with people and I want to be someone that feel comfortable working with. I know that my behavior is hurting me professionally.
