Do you have evidence of leaders in the organization making hard choices to do the right thing?
This went from a hard yes to a soft no and I don’t know if it’s soul crushing but it feels super crappy.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Lmao, nowhere I’ve ever worked has had a single one of these factors, what a pipe dream
Does your actual compensation take care of what you need for all of your current goals and needs — from day one?
I've never had this. Where does one find a job like that today lol. I want to say the majority of people actively do not have this unless they are in a situation where they have been able to live more frugally. Inflation and greedflation have made any pay increases I've received in the past decade basically non existent.
That being said I'm basically supporting a family of 4 on a salary of 1.5 people.
Good questions
What’s the lived experience of the workers there whom you trust? Do you have evidence of leaders in the organization making hard choices to do the right thing?
Very helpful, and very hard to get around if you don't already have a connection.
Though in my experience, people will tell you a fair amount about the organization indirectly; and will often answer direct questions.
My org seems to be making hard choices to do the wrong thing at the moment. Hope I am wrong.
Agreed I’ve usually found existing employees honest and helpful. Often it’s hard to get an opportunity for an honest conversation before you accept a new job though.
