[Newsletter] Remote Work: From the World Cup to Your Next Career Move

Hi,

Reading the news about the technical layoffs prompted us to explore the topic further — so we wrote an article about what's really lying beneath the mass layoffs. If you're interested in going deeper, it's worth a read.

This edition also covers an upcoming remote-work event, the best response to disruption, and how to quit doomjobbing. On that note: I think we should build a glossary of these emerging workplace trends by the end of the year. We've already covered microshifting, soft day-offing, and now doomjobbing. Enjoy the reads, folks!
