In this episode, I got over five critical things every first gen professional should know about the workplace. The first three are tactical and focus on the reality of how workplace systems work. The last two are mindset related and are particularly important for first generation professionals who often carry their parents’ and grandparents’ hopes and dreams in their shoulders. 

Key Takeaways: 

• Base pay is just one part of your compensation package

• Every workplace interaction can impact your career

• Guilt has no place in your career! It is safe to outgrow a job.

Plus: Why you need to learn the difference between someone you’re friendly with at work vs an actual friend you met through work.
