15 Star Trek Characters Promoted Faster Than Voyager"s Harry Kim

Summary

• Harry Kim's lack of promotion throughout the Star Trek franchise is highlighted by the rapid advancements of other characters, such as Michael Burnham and Saru, who earned higher ranks in a shorter amount of time.
• Characters like Geordi La Forge and Worf demonstrate that a rapid rise through the ranks is possible within seven years, making Harry Kim's stagnant Ensign status even more frustrating.
• Ensigns from Star Trek: Lower Decks and characters like Sidney La Forge were promoted before Harry Kim, showcasing how his lack of advancement is a glaring issue compared to his counterparts.

Harry Kim's eternal Ensign status is legendary in the Star Trek franchise, but what hurts even more is the amount of characters who received promotions much faster than he ever did. Harry was one of the main characters on Star Trek: Voyager, serving as Operations Officer on the bridge of the USS Voyager for all seven seasons of the show. Although Voyager operated under a slightly unique set of rules when it came to promotions and demotions because of the ship being stranded in the Delta Quadrant, there were still plenty of opportunities for Harry to be promoted to a higher rank.
Sadly, even while other characters around him received promotions, Harry never made it past Ensign. Not only did other Voyager characters continue to move up the Starfleet ladder while Harry stood still, but the Star Trek franchise is chock-full of officers with just as much talent as Harry who were promoted much faster, sometimes even more than once, during the run of their shows. Of course, the franchise has yet to reveal what happened to Harry after Voyager's finale, so it's possible he did receive a promotion. Until anything is confirmed, however, other characters have continued to show him up.
