Rajiv ChandrasekaranGUEST
This is so fundamentally different from every other great place to work list out there or best company to work for.

Rajiv ChandrasekaranGUEST
It's not based on how well a company's PR department filled out a survey from a glossy magazine.

Rajiv ChandrasekaranGUEST
It's also not based on just querying small groups of workers to get sentiment analysis.

So would that admin who is thinking in this way, they go to the site and then how does it actually work for them? Where does it go from there for someone like that? Yeah.

Why not retrain them? Why not refocus them and refocus their efforts on something else?

Rajiv ChandrasekaranGUEST
So then which companies are the best at doing that? And we posit that companies that have really excelled at building those internal talent pathways, both laterally and vertically, what we kind of call mobility muscle.

Rajiv ChandrasekaranGUEST
And those are companies that generally are very highly rated through the Where You Work Matters methodology.

Rajiv ChandrasekaranGUEST
Those are places where to this conversation, where if you're seeing significant AI impacts in one or two occupational clusters, they're more likely to be able to redeploy that talent elsewhere.

Rajiv ChandrasekaranGUEST
But that gets us to, so how do we know this? Let me just continue on very briefly on the methodology front, because what Matt was setting up to say, which I think really makes where you work matters so unique here, is that we when we are looking at companies we start at the occupation level so we're not comparing the entire workforce let's say of walmart to microsoft we compare like versus like occupational groups so that allows us to to uh much more objectively assess companies across sectors and geographies great but what it really does is it enables us to see how well different workers in different occupations fare within the same company.

Rajiv ChandrasekaranGUEST
Because, and I'm going to turn it back over to Matt here, who will say this much more eloquently than I, even at the highest performing companies kind of overall on the Where You Work Matters list, The experience is not uniform.
