Welcome to That $weet $alary Podcast, hosted by Ben Harris and Emily Green! Today, we’re digging into the red flags that often hide in job postings, like the dreaded “thrives in ambiguity” requirement. When companies advertise for roles in “fast-paced” and “ambiguous” environments, is it a chance for freedom and flexibility, or is it just code for “you’re on your own”? Ben and Emily break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of these postings, offering tips on how to interpret—and handle—jobs where you might be responsible for everything without much support.

If you’re looking to avoid burnout and find a role that matches your expectations, this episode’s for you!
