Life is like a journey, you don't care about the destination, you care about the scenery along the way. In today's workplace, every choice is like a gamble, some people only pursue their dreams for high salaries in large factories, while some people choose to give up high-salary and high-pressure Internet companies and pursue inner balance. In the workplace, we often need to make these difficult choices, and these choices are often related to our life-work balance.
Today, some netizens shared his story, before working in a large factory, the annual salary reached 40w, and then he was laid off and jumped to a state-owned enterprise with an annual salary of 25w, but there was no performance pressure at 965 every day, and then thanked him for being laid off. The party seems to be very happy, although the annual salary has been cut a lot, but the state-owned enterprises that can go to 965 have a balance between life and work, and there is no performance pressure and is more stable than that of the Internet giants, and the happier one should be laid off and received a large amount of compensation.
In the Internet industry, high salaries and high intensity always seem to be inseparable. Under the haze of upward economic pressure, the news of layoffs has become more and more harsh. He worked hard in a major Internet company, but left due to the company's layoffs. The annual salary has dropped from 400,000 to 250,000, which seems to be a huge shrinkage, but for the dismissal notice of a large Internet company, there is generally an N+1 compensation, and at the same time, the stability and less pressure of state-owned enterprises also make him happier.
The workplace is not a static battlefield, but a field full of opportunities and challenges. Changing jobs after layoffs is about finding a richer career experience in balance. Every change in the workplace is an experience in the journey of life, and we need to face it with a calm mind.
The blow of layoffs is heavy for anyone, but when faced with layoffs, they can be calm and calm. Why? Because we can plan our career early on. Jumping from a large factory to a state-owned enterprise, no longer running for a high salary, but having more free time, can spend time with his family, and pursue his hobbies. In state-owned enterprises, life has become more relaxed, and although wages have fallen, they have been more happy.
Being laid off is not only a change of salary, but also a redefinition of life. Liberated from the previous 996 life, he entered the 965 mode of state-owned enterprises. Working five days a week gave him the freedom to work on weekends again. This work-life balance makes you feel more comfortable and invisibly improves your work efficiency. Compared with the often unpredictable risk of layoffs in large Internet companies, the career stability of state-owned enterprises can be more reliable.
In life, some people give up high salaries and choose a more relaxed working environment; Some people leave their busy lives behind and opt for a more comfortable family life. These choices may be questioned by the outside world, but for the person concerned, it is a response to the inner need to better pursue happiness.
You might say that this choice is too extravagant, after all, there are always too many responsibilities to take on in life. However, everyone has their own way of life, and there is no right or wrong, only suitable and unsuitable. The choice of workplace is not only a matter of chasing money, but also a matter of quality of life and happiness.
In this complex world of work, we always need to find a balance that suits us. Sometimes, letting go of some will give you more.
The workplace is like an impermanent performance, sometimes high-pitched and agitated, sometimes low and quiet. 996 or 965, everyone has the right to choose their own lifestyle, whether it is a high salary and busy, or moderately calm, as long as they are responsible for themselves, it is the best choice.
Perhaps, the waves in the workplace are just storms, and what we need is to find a peaceful harbor in the wind and rain. I hope that while we are chasing our dreams, we can also find deep inner balance and calmness in the workplace. Because the career path is not only a process of chasing success, but also discovering the lifestyle you really pursue.
