The home of mega-corporations like Coca Cola and Delta Airlines is also the best place to start your own business, according to new LinkedIn data. 1 U.S. metro area with the fastest year-over-year growth, 92%, in people founding their own companies, per the job search site. 1 place for young professionals to start a career, according to a report from Wallethub, based on metrics like availability of jobs, average starting salary, unemployment rate, median annual income, housing affordability and family-friendliness. Elsewhere in the country, the only representative for Silicon Valley — San Francisco — comes in at No. "Though the San Francisco Bay Areas remains one of the world's leading places for tech startups, it's possible or perhaps likely that smaller 'Main Street' businesses aren't opening at a nation-leading pace," Anders says.

Americans are pretty bad about unplugging from work while on vacation, and some of the youngest professionals have an especially tough time of it. Some 35% of Gen Z workers say they feel guilty not working when they're on vacation, versus the 29% U.S. average across age ranges, according to LinkedIn's latest Workforce Confidence Index, based on a survey of 9,461 U.S. professionals this summer. But working on vacation can send the wrong message to your boss and co-workers. Working on vacation can make you a bad co-workerSamm Samujh, 30, is an executive coach based in New York City and felt those pressures early on in her career. "If you're telling people you're on vacation for two weeks and ask for coverage, then while you're out you're emailing them, it causes confusion and creates more harm than good," she says.

But for today's youngest workers, one big thing holding them back is guilt. Some 35% of Gen Z workers say they feel guilty not working when they're on vacation, versus the 29% U.S. average across age ranges. That's according to LinkedIn's latest Workforce Confidence Index, based on a survey of 9,461 U.S. professionals this summer. "Gen Z is very conscientious," Anders tells CNBC Make It. They may have different habits, such as dress code preferences or desires of the location where they work, "but from what we're seeing, Gen Z's commitment to delivering good work is as intense as any other generation."

A third of Gen Zers say they feel guilty while on vacation, LinkedIn survey finds. Gen Z feels more guilty than Millennials, Gen X, and boomers about not working on holidays. Millennials and Gen Xers didn't fall far behind Gen Z on the scale of guilt. And only about half of Gen Zers surveyed by LinkedIn said they had planned a vacation this year. Luxury retail client advisor Razonie Napier told Insider that he struggles with turning off his work phone when he's on vacation.

Fully remote jobs are getting harder to come by, but the competition for work-from-home jobs is especially fierce in some parts of the country. Just two years ago, remote jobs in Bend attracted about 42% of applications. Nationally, just 11% of open jobs on LinkedIn offer remote work, but they attract close to 50% of total job applications as of May. Bend, in particular, became popular among newly mobile tech workers from Silicon Valley and Seattle. Check out: How return-to-office battles and remote work are making America's burnout problem worse

And 18% of workers say they're working a hybrid schedule, which has steadily trended upward since 2021. After most office workers stayed home throughout 2020, reporting onsite regained its ground as the most popular way to work after April 2021, according to LinkedIn data, and has increased ever since while remote work declined. "Remote work is having its moment" and it's "at the very least a short-term reversal of a pattern we've been seeing in the long-term." A similar pattern happened in January 2022 when the share of people working in-person dipped and remote work became more popular. However, an increase in remote work despite a drop in remote listings could mean people are negotiating for the flexibility after applying, Anders says.
Layoffs are getting loud, and workers are stressing out. Roughly 1 in 3 U.S. workers, 31%, say they're concerned their company is planning budget cuts or layoffs, according to a recent LinkedIn Workforce Confidence survey, which includes data from 21,000-plus professionals from September to December. Other lines of work, like business admin, policing, social work and accounting, are also necessary to keep daily life running. Anders notes that these workers can be considered society's problem solvers: "Think of them as a recession's essential workers." As workers lose confidence in their job security, we could see fewer people quitting in droves each month, economists say.
