Better Jobs with Companies That Care

Look, we're going to be straight with you: this week sucked. It sucked hard. Normally we're glass half full kind of gals, but turn on the news (or your computer, or your phone, or stick your head out from under the covers) and negativity is rampant. It hits us at every curve and it's difficult to bring the levity we're normally known for. But every once in awhile, it's ok to let your guard down and let the world know you're human. Y'know, a human with emotions and feelings and a soul. We weep for lives lost, opportunities lost, ground-gained lost. We weep for us all. Take care of yourselves, and take care of each other. It's times like these that bring the important stuff into perspective. We pray the future brings brighter days, and we won't stop fighting until it does.

FEATURED COMPANY THAT CARES: ZENDESK

Zendesk builds software to power customer relationships, but that's not the only power they produce. This benefit trounces all the others we've seen to date (and we've seen many): on-the-job napping, anyone? Providing ample PTO and comfy couches, you won't be getting behind-the-back side-eye here for catching a little snooze. Don't believe us? Check them out and see for yourself (along with a plethora of other hard-to-beat benefits, too!)

What is a DEI hire — and is it a fair term?

As workplaces evolve, the term “DEI hire” has become a point of contention. For some, it represents a commitment to diversity and inclusion; for others, it raises concerns about tokenism and fairness.

This debate has recently intensified as broader conversations around diversity, equity, and inclusion face growing scrutiny. Following a 2023 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down race-conscious college admissions, legal and political challenges to DEI initiatives surged. Critics argue that these measures unfairly disadvantage historically dominant groups (think White Americans or those who’ve faced fewer systemic barriers), while supporters maintain that DEI is essential for creating equitable opportunities.

Great non-tech remote jobs for 2025

Picture two employees, let’s call them Taylor and Reese. Taylor is energetic, always up for a meeting or a quick call, and happy to work in a team. In fact, the larger the team, the happier she is. She's chatty, fun, spontaneous, and charismatic.

Reese is also very talented, but he’s more reserved. He avoids spontaneous meetings and dreads unexpected calls. After work, you won’t find Reese headed to drinks with coworkers, and at least at work, some would say Reese keeps to himself. While Taylor likes to lead presentations, Reese prefers to listen and analyze.
