Episode #56: Can Work Culture Trump the Work Itself?

Today we’re looking at this question of whether or not work culture can trump the work itself. My guest, Dr. Jenny Goss, a board-certified OB/Gyn thought she was taking a temporary nonclinical job to help with burnout but ended up loving the company culture so much she decided to stay. We look at the different ways this company makes it so enjoyable to be an employee and what the work itself is like. Dr. Goss also shares some key tips on how to assess a company’s culture when you’re interviewing for a job.
