"Last week, we talked about one huge question, “How the hell are you supposed
to have a career in tech in 2026?” That’s pretty specific to this current
moment, but there are some timeless, more perennial questions I've been sharing
with friends for years that I wanted to give to all of you. They're a short
list of questions that help you judge whether a job that you’re considering is
going to crush your soul or not.
Obviously, not everyone is going to get to work in an environment that has
perfect answers to all of these questions; a lot of the time, we’re lucky just
to get a place to work at all. But these questions are framed in this way to
encourage us all to aspire towards roles that enable us to do our best work, to
have the biggest impact, and to live according to our values."
