Are people here jealous though that Europeans have far better work life balance, care about their wellbeing (in every way) and have a far better quality of life in general?
Europeans know better than we do how to live a good life.
Europeans also have a bad economy and soon with an aging population and us not paying for the majority of military spending will soon lose a lot of their bragging points like a functioning healthcare and 3 month vacations. Say what you will about American work culture but for the majority the hard work pays off.
That’s because accounting is a dogsh*t career path. For 98% of them, they are overworked and underpaid. Some maybe it to C-Suite as CFOs but other than that you’re just stuck in mediocrity for your entire life.
So true!!! Then if I’m gone for 1-2 days I feel the need to respond. The culture is so different! And in my experience, their quality of work is nowhere near US
Agree with quality of work being less than the US
Naw, America is way better! Speaking as someone who worked in Europe
I also worked in Europe for a short-time. I am not sure about the work but it can be very difficult to move to Europe unless you are fluent in a few foreign languages. I applied to work in London but ended up in Luxembourg instead.
