Gen Z has been fast-tracking their way up the career ladder by job-hopping. But the shortcut to bigger paychecks and snazzy job titles has lost its edge. Now, staying loyal pays virtually just as much as jumping ship. Workers who stayed put at their jobs received a 4.6% wage bump in January and February, while those who switched gigs only received a marginally higher increase of 4.8%, according to new data from the Atlanta Fed.

Amid the rise of more hybrid and remote roles, talk of a four-day workweek, and the potential of AI to shake up entire industries, work in America is undergoing profound changes in the 2020s. Some employees—and their employers—think it’s also time to change how and when people retire. Of course, retirement in the U.S. isn’t a monolith—some work until age 65 before leaving for golf courses and world cruises, while many others never fully retire at all. Others are set on leaving the traditional work world as soon as possible, entering high-paying but stressful fields so they can sock away money and then quit in their 50s—or even earlier.

Sonya Mishra was reading through a list of the most powerful people in business when she came across a troubling pattern. Most of the men on the list, like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckberberg, were defined by their roles building businesses and accumulating vast wealth, Sonya Mishra, an assistant professor of management at Dartmouth’s Tuck School of Business, tells Fortune. But the women on the list were mostly celebrities, and even though they had their own businesses, they were known primarily for their work in other fields like sports or entertainment. “I started thinking about why it is that women are reaching these high status positions, but not breaking into these high power positions,” says Mishra. “And that’s when I started to wonder what role men play in this trend.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/ebRzZXrM
