Personal opinion that may ruffle feathers… With seeing all these recent layoff bloodbaths, then seeing people hiring again and sharing why a role is attractive, why people want to join their company… Highlighting why talent is priority for them, why employee welfare is of utmost importance. Honestly, turns my stomach upside down. Today they can be laying off thousands of people. Tomorrow they can tell you they have an exciting opportunity up for applications. 🧐 When will this “talent is utmost priority” upend itself once again? Look, I’m not saying don’t go get a job or don’t work for a company. I’m saying, take everything with a pinch of salt. What I am saying: ✨Know your value and worth. ✨Build and save a safety net of cash or investments when you are doing well for your rainy days. ✨Don’t pour your life into the work and forget that your family and loved ones need your undivided attention as much as the people who hire you. ✨Don’t place all your self identity and worth into your job or your company. Those are 2 different things and must be separated. ✨Prioritise your work and time scrupulously. So you over deliver, yet still grow your inner joy and spend time with your loved ones. Reality is: 👉🏻You get paid to do the work. You don’t get paid to sell your soul. So don’t place so much enthusiasm and emphasis on it when someone from the company sells you a dream. Oftentimes it’s their dream. Not yours. #selfempowerment #selfcare #careeradvice #layoffs
