How is your Work Life balance these days. Is your job supporting your personal goals.

I'd say my work/life balance is good, but that's because I make an effort to have it be that way. I couldn't really say my job supports that, it usually seems like it's in opposition to it. But that's to be expected, I guess. The key is to just hold your ground and not let the job take all your time and energy.

Thanks for sharimg

Oh no, my employer absolutely could not care less about personal goals or if we have any kind of life outside of the office. It is all about the work and profits, nothing else matters to them. If we can’t hit our goals we need to put in more and more hours or be fired. How is your work life balance going?
