    Most people over-index on maximizing compensation or holding on to stability. But there’s more to work than money and stability. Work is about growth, building connections, working on things you care about, being challenged and creating a legacy.

    Compensation and stability are the only things that matter beyond basic working conditions and a non-toxic environment.
