this is work

Play along with Em and Shell in a fun game of 'would you rather', a great way to become more aware of what you value in your career! So would you rather:

👉🏾 more money or better culture?
👉🏿 a boss who is a genius but also mean and arrogant or one that's incompetent but kind and humble?
👉🏻 if you receive a counter offer, would you stay or go?
👉 big organisation + career progression or small business where you have lots of influence?
👉🏼 work in a for-profit or for-purpose organisation?
👉🏽 an environment that’s super flexible but not fun or fun but with no flexibility?
👉🏿 pay transparency in your workplace or not knowing what others are paid?
👉 casual or permanent employment?
👉🏾 100% remote work or 100% office-based?

good boss, bad boss
