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
Brenda Cohen+FollowJob Hunting Feels Like a Full-Time JobJob hunting is exhausting—over half of applicants say the process is tough, and two-thirds are totally burned out. What do job seekers actually want? Speedy, simple applications (less than 30 mins, please!), clear and quick communication (email > phone), and a mix of tech and human touch. If you’re hiring, don’t drag your feet—candidates expect fast responses and flexible scheduling, or they’ll move on. The job market’s rough, but people are still ready to jump for the right opportunity! #JobSearch #HiringTips #Recruitment #CareerAdvice #WorkCulture #JobCareer264Share
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

If you’re too much of a corporate robot, you’re out! She wants people who can handle startup chaos and bring good vibes—not just a fancy resume. So, if you’re job hunting, remember: showing your passion and adaptability might just be your golden ticket, especially at fast-growing brands! #CareerTips #StartupLife #WorkCulture #Business30Share
Cheryl Thomas+FollowWhy Employee Engagement Is a Total Game-ChangerTurns out, ignoring employee engagement is costing U.S. companies nearly $2 trillion a year! I used to think work was just about results and paychecks, but leading teams showed me the real magic happens when people feel valued and connected. When leaders invest in purpose, recognition, and growth, teams go from just showing up to actually caring—and it shows in sales, retention, and innovation. Engagement isn’t fluff; it’s the secret sauce for business success. Ready to ditch the old-school mindset? #Leadership #EmployeeEngagement #WorkCulture #JobCareer80Share
Keith Bass+FollowWhy Did 'Diversity' Disappear at Work?Noticed fewer 'diversity' emails at work lately? You're not imagining it—big companies have slashed mentions of 'DEI' (diversity, equity, inclusion) in their reports by 72% this year. The shift comes as political pressure heats up, and brands like Walmart and Meta quietly drop diversity programs. For employees, this means fewer special initiatives and less visible support for things like Pride Month. If you relied on these programs for networking or support, it might be time to look for new ways to connect at work. #WorkCulture #DEI #CorporateTrends #Business43Share
Kaitlyn Page+FollowTech Perks Out, Pressure’s In!Remember when tech jobs were all about free snacks and chill vibes? Not anymore! Big names like Google, Meta, and Microsoft are ditching the perks and turning up the heat with stricter performance reviews. If you’re not a top performer, you could be on the chopping block. And get this—some companies even keep secret 'block lists' of ex-employees. Wild times in Silicon Valley! #TechNews #WorkCulture #SiliconValley #JobCareer00Share
