Together with Noam Segal, we unpack the most surprising insights from a sweeping new study of over 8,200 tech professionals—across roles, company sizes, and work setups.

In this episode, you’ll learn

• Why burnout is rampant

• Who’s thriving in tech right now (and who’s not)

• The shocking stat: Only 1 in 4 workers think their manager is effective

• How sentiment shifts between remote, hybrid, and in-office setups

• Why you might want to switch to a smaller company

• What’s driving the mid-career slump—and how to escape it

• The clarity gap that’s holding people back

• Why women are more engaged but more burned-out than men

• How AI is fueling both career anxiety and reinvention
