Is the Dream of a Stable, High-Paying Job Really Over?
Robert Herjavec Says the $100K Job with Benefits is “Dead and Gone”—Is He Right?
If you’ve been holding out hope for a cushy, stable career with a six-figure salary and full benefits, you might want to brace yourself. According to entrepreneur and Shark Tank investor Robert Herjavec, that dream is over—and it may never come back.
In his post, Herjavec wrote:
“The idea of getting a lifetime job and making $100,000 a year with benefits is dead and gone. It’s over. And it may never come again. That’s a very scary thought for a lot of people.”
Is he right? (IMO: yes.) Is the era of the well-paying, long-term career truly over? And if so, what does that mean for the future of work?
