The key to your success is to find the critical path to your success and work hard to remove those key barriers.

No matter how bad your relationship with someone is, it's almost always better to build your career in your current organization than to go somewhere else.
The saying, "better the devil you know than the devil you don't" holds true.

It is better to deal with a difficult person or situation you know than to deal with a new person or situation that you don't know in a new organization. It could be worse than the current situation!

When you interact with another organization during recruitment, you interact with the people who like you, who want you to join. But when you join, you're going to be working with people who didn't recruit you, who didn't like you, who didn't want you to join. Then you going to see how much deficit you have.

There will always be people who you will have to work with that you do not like.

While it's easy to leave, it's usually much harder to start something new and to build personal relationships from ground zero. Work with what you have, even if it doesn't feel like the best option. In real terms, it usually is the best option.
