100% employer paid medical insurance I wanted to reach out and see if anyone here works at a company whose employer covers 100% of their medical insurance. If so, is it a company you'd recommend (great leaders, work/life harmony, growth, etc.)?

Job Postings To the recruiters out there, I have a question for you-before you repost a job, do you take the time to re-review the resumes you received from the original posting? I applied to a job where I was rejected quickly and then saw the same job re-posted weeks later.…

Recently my job has turned into a place of torment. I was made to fire my own husband last week (not for any reason, just because my boss decided to "restructure" my department). I don't know how I stay after this, especially because we are a very small company and I feel so…
