Kaitlyn Page+FollowLunch break at the gym gets HR worker fired?Taking your lunch break outside the office—like hitting the gym—might seem totally normal, but for Whitney Lawrence, it led to her job being outsourced. After years of never leaving her desk, she finally decided to use her lunch hour for herself, only to face snarky comments and, soon after, a pink slip. The kicker? Other employees left for lunch without issue, but HR staff faced an 'unspoken rule.' Is this fair, or just another example of toxic office culture? How do you spend your lunch break, and would you risk it in a place like this? #JobCareer #WorkCulture #LunchBreak202253Share

fnixon+FollowIs Your Office Turning Into a Bootcamp?Heads up: Some big-name CEOs are bringing back old-school office vibes—think less flexibility, more hustle. AT&T and Cognition just told their teams to get ready for longer hours and more face time, or hit the road. Why? Execs are spooked by AI and a shaky job market, so they want max productivity. If you love hybrid work, it might be time to check your options. Transparency is key, but so is knowing your worth! #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #WorkCulture20Share
robertocarter+FollowWhy US Work Culture Feels Like Shark TankEver wondered why working in the US feels like a non-stop episode of Shark Tank? According to a globe-trotting CEO, American business is all about speed, direct talk, and showing off your wins—think less handshakes, more scoreboard. Meanwhile, Europe is more like a chess match, with lots of planning before making a move. If you’re job-hopping or pitching, tailor your style: hustle in the US, build trust in Latin America, and plan ahead in Europe. Adapt and win! #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #WorkCulture20Share
boothconnor+FollowLaw Firm’s Wildest Team-Building TraditionQuinn Emanuel’s idea of a company retreat? Forget spa days—think multi-day backpacking trips in the Andes or up Mount Fuji. Every year, hundreds of lawyers and staff haul their own gear, camp out, and tackle brutal hikes together. It’s not just about surviving the wild; it’s about building trust and real bonds when you’re totally out of your comfort zone. Apparently, the toughest hikes lead to the best stories (and friendships) back at the office! #News #WorkCulture #TeamBuilding20Share
Christy Jones+FollowMillennials Are Quiet Vacationing?!Turns out, 'quiet quitting' is old news—now nearly 4 in 10 millennials are sneaking off on 'quiet vacations.' They’re literally working from the beach (or another country!), just checking emails here and there so the boss doesn’t catch on. The wildest part? It’s all because they’re scared to look like slackers if they actually ask for time off. If your coworker suddenly starts replying at weird hours, they might just be sipping margaritas somewhere sunny! #JobCareer #WorkCulture #Millennials52Share
Kristi Cunningham+FollowWhy I Fired My Smartest EmployeeEver had a genius on your team who just couldn't get along with anyone? I learned the hard way that raw smarts mean nothing if you can't read the room. My brightest analyst was a walking brain, but zero empathy—every meeting felt like a showdown. Letting them go was tough, but my team (and clients) instantly breathed easier. Now, I hire for emotional intelligence first, skills second. Trust me, EQ saves way more headaches than IQ ever will! #JobCareer #WorkCulture #EmotionalIntelligence2310Share
Kim Brown+FollowWhy Aldi Managers Love the Shop FloorEver wondered why Aldi store managers seem so upbeat? Turns out, they’re not just bosses—they’re hands-on team players who actually know everyone’s name. Unlike other supermarkets where managers hide in offices, Aldi’s crew leads from the shop floor, making the workday feel more like a team sport than a corporate grind. The big shift? Managers here do it all—stock checks, chats with customers, and even helping out on the tills. It’s people-first, and that’s why the vibe feels more like family than just another job. #RetailLife #AldiCareers #WorkCulture #Business #LocalBusiness90Share
gordonangela+FollowWhy You Shouldn't Rush Into a New JobThinking about jumping straight from one job to another? Ex-Apple exec Bob Baxley says, hit pause! He learned the hard way that every company has its own vibe, and bringing your old work habits to a new place can backfire. Instead, take time to observe and adjust—like getting a mental "car wash" between gigs. Even if you can't take a break, give yourself grace to settle in and figure out what really works in your new spot. #CareerTips #WorkCulture #JobSwitch #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup52Share
Russell Cooke+FollowWhy Your Job Feels Meh (and How to Fix It)Only 21% of people are actually engaged at work—wild, right? Turns out, it’s not about free snacks or even pay. People want purpose. If you’re a leader, here’s the real tea: your team isn’t just craving perks, they want to know their work matters. Real talk and honest check-ins beat pizza parties every time. If you want people to stay (and thrive), ditch the gimmicks and get real about meaning. Purpose is the new power move. #WorkCulture #Leadership #EmployeeEngagement #JobCareer00Share
