Three things to get right.
Lighting
Prefers bright, indirect light and copes with the medium light of offices. Direct sun can scorch its leaves.
Watering
Water when about half the soil is dry, then empty the saucer. It needs less in winter.
Temperature & humidity
Normal room temperature suits it; it dislikes cold and direct AC draughts.

When about half the soil is dry, then empty the saucer. Its leaves store some water, and overwatering is what harms it most.
In bright, indirect or medium light – on a desk or a shelf near a window. It doesn't like strong direct sun.
Its roots are small and like a snug pot – move it up just one size only when roots fill the pot.
