Most people don't love their jobs. I think that's a fixable problem and also a business problem most leaders are too uncomfortable to name. I'm a VP of People at Chili Piper. Which means I've spent years in the rooms where decisions about your career get made: hiring, compensation, performance, layoffs. Fun rooms. Great for your social life. I write about work the way I wish more people in my seat would, honestly. The broken systems nobody's fixing. What founders get wrong at 50 people. What managers don't say, employees don't know, and HR usually won't tell you. I take the outcomes seriously. I just refuse to take the whole thing so seriously that nobody wants to be in the room (including me). If you're a founder building people strategy before it becomes a people problem, a manager trying to do right by your team, or an employee who feels like the rules were written for everyone but you, I write for you. Follow along. Say the hard things. I'll try to make it worth your time and occasionally make you laugh about the thing that's also making you want to quit.
