Hmm, yeah if people won't be satisified with the risk and work life imbalance of corporate world unless making $400k+, I can see why people are boomeranging. |
There are people in my office that will talk for hours about how much work they do and how they are not lazy at all. For hours. |
Cool story. |
Not to mention health insurance benefits into retirement. 250K is way too low to make sense. |
Plenty, and I mean PLENTY of corporate men and women have young children. It’s a matter of what you’re willing to trade off. Time or money? Sometimes no trade off is even needed, and you may find both. Some corporate jobs are cush. I do feel like your work has the potential to be more interesting in corporate, depending on the company, role and level you land in. Low level corporate jobs can suck and be a boring grind. The work definitely gets more interesting as you climb the ladder. |
But how exactly does it work with kids and working till 6-7pm and weekend on calls or travel? Sure there are corporate parents but usually they have a part-time/SAH or maybe teacher co-parent. Or just hire a ton of nannies. |
Sociopaths usually get put in charge in corporations. I have dealt with a few while working as a fed, but a lower proportion than leaders in the corporate world |
I can recall some very sociopathic politicians |
In my opinion the sociopaths are in government.
At least in the private sector, the profit motive is front and center for all to see. In government, there is only the bureaucratic will to power, where petty tyrants can exercise influence that vastly outstrips their personal ability to impress. |
So are there corporate jobs where people leave by 4pm? Or do they all just have driving nannies ? |
