All your thoughts, feelings, and emojis about work right now

 

With all this talk of burnout, career stall, the still-raging She-cession, and an entrepreneurship boom, one thing is for certain: Work is on the brain. But we wanted to know how you’re feeling about work at the moment. As always, you had some thoughtful answers. We rounded up:

What makes you want to stay in a job (TL;DR: compensation, good people leaders, respect)

How you feel about returning to the office

Some recos on how Ellevest can help you negotiate for more, land that dream job, and get more money in your hands

 READ THE REST 
 

Did you quit your job in the last six months?

There’s certainly a lot of talk about quitting, but there’s also some deep thinking going on about what makes you feel valued at work. On Instagram, we asked if you recently left your role. Here’s what you said:

DECIDED TO STAY 76%
 
BYE BYE BYE 24%

“Culture. Resources. Recognition. Compensation.”

Reading the room (and all the links)

Dreaming of a risk-free investment? Unfortunately, those don’t exist. But Ellevest CEO Sallie Krawcheck still has some ideas for you.

If you WFH and are feeling a bit lonely, you could consider an accountability group. Or meeting up with a friend at a coffee shop, your living room, or a co-working space. 👭

Catching the line drive. ✅ PS: This reaction is everything.
