Work is a Lifestyle Brand
“Tech has eliminated the barriers between work and life…
Employers are trying to figure out how to make work easier and more
meaningful to people, to attract both the very ambitious people that want
to really move up and drive change and run things, and the people who
want to work hard but not ruin their lives.”
