I’ve never seen it like this.

I listened to your podcast today and my immediate reaction was you all didn’t talk enough about agency. Night & day difference in current and last role is the amount of agency that I feel.

Good point. Carly and I will be back soon. Hopefully we touch on it

I have a (correct) suspicion that this is not limited to your close friends at Mega comoany.

I used to work at Indeed.

We would see a ~25-30% bump in job searches during the first few weeks of January as everyone came back from Christmas breaks and realized just how bad their work place was.

When I worked at VRBO our traffic peak was 1pm and you could watch it march across the US. People would come back from work and dream about vacation. I love that meta-cycle

Any pattern as to what’s causing this?

Greed and zero sum thinking which I think is cultural but also driven by housing costs.
