☆ Why thinking of your work as a family can be so toxic and what you can do instead
  + stars: | 2023-02-02 | by ( Avery Hartmans | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
As layoffs sweep through the tech sector, it's become more clear: Work isn't your family. The workplace family "works as a means to distract and compel workers to ignore their own exploitation," they added. For some people, like Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, striving for an even distribution of work and personal life doesn't work — he prefers work-life integration instead. But continuing to learn and grow is crucial and often falls by the wayside, Bonilla Zizumbo said. Nurture your professional relationshipsNetworking is another thing that can fall by the wayside when we make work our whole lives, Bonilla Zizumbo said.
☆ Layoffs at Google, Microsoft, Salesforce Teaching Tech Employees a Harsh Lesson
  + stars: | 2023-01-29 | by ( Avery Hartmans | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +14 min
Tech workers are using all sorts of emotional phrases to describe the layoff wave that has gripped the industry and become the talk of the business world. "I'm shocked and hurt and still processing," Katie Olaskiewicz, a former human-truths strategist at Google, wrote on LinkedIn last week shortly after 12,000 Google employees were let go. Over the past two weeks, a total of 40,000 employees have been laid off from Amazon, Microsoft, and Google, a nightmare come true for tech workers. The tech layoffs have been starkly different from Wall Street, which has in recent months instituted its own rounds of job cuts. Wall Street realitiesIn many ways, tech workers are waking up to a reality that their peers in other high-flying industries have always known.
☆ Prevent burnout by spotting these red and green flags before taking the job
  + stars: | 2022-12-28 | by ( Natalie Tham | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +7 min
Burnout is a "very common" workplace mental health issue caused by chronic and unmanaged stress, said Dr. Oliver Suendermann, clinical director of Intellect, a Singapore-based mental health support startup. With a slew of trickle-down effects that could harm your mental and physical health, burnout is a slippery slope that should be avoided. CNBC Make It spoke with experts and coaches who shared some red flags that should ring alarm bells, and green flags that can indicate a lower burnout risk. This can include providing managers with training on mental health, he added. Suendermann, who works for Intellect which offers a mental health support app, said some companies also help connect employees with professional coaches.
☆ Why going into work five days a week is a thing of the past
  + stars: | 2022-11-28 | by ( Chris Cillizza | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
Though it feels like the five-day, 40-hour work week has always been with us, it’s actually a relatively new invention. As far back as 1866, Congress considered mandating a 40-hour work week, but the legislation stalled. In 1926, Henry Ford instituted a 40-hour work week for his employees, believing that was the optimal amount of time for someone to work in a week. But the 40-hour work week was – and is – routinely violated by salaried employees (and their bosses) who believe that working more is working better. “If you think about it, your contract with your employee is not just buying time,” Charlotte Lockhart, an advocate for a four-day work week, told me.
☆ These 15 people are shaping the office of the future, designing meeting pods, hologram calls, and buildings that actually make workers healthier
  + stars: | 2022-10-24 | by ( Robert Davis | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +27 min
These 15 power players are just a handful of the people designing workplaces to balance productivity, interaction, and employee well-being through indoor-air-quality monitoring systems, building amenities, holographic meeting spaces, and more. AftershipCities like Austin, Texas; Nashville, Tennessee; and Raleigh, North Carolina, began offering business-relocation incentives during the pandemic to boost their workforces and help increase occupancy in office buildings. Room's office suite includes a phone booth, a meeting room, an open meeting room, and a focus room. Room also makes a soundproof meeting room that fits two people, a more open meeting booth, and a focus room designed for quiet concentration. "The future of office work needs to be guided by a new, genuine form of flexibility in which the work, not the workers themselves, become even more malleable," Petersen writes.
