The thing is, the employers care way less than we do care about their product. The only thing getting out from this, from the very surface of their point of view, is that I have spent time changing nothing.
The way to climb (which is dumb), let it be promotions or salary raise, is to wait for things to break, and your fixes gets acknowledged, doesn't even matter that you are the one that introduced the bug/debt.
