The question may raise a smile... And yet, the health of your career has a considerable impact on your overall well-being. This aspect of life deserves to be taken seriously.

While 73% of Dutch workers say they are satisfied with their job, in France, 51% of employees say they are dissatisfied with their professional life .
The most common reasons:
Complicated relationships with the hierarchy.
Tensions or misunderstandings between colleagues.
Too long a journey time.
Remuneration deemed insufficient.
A lack of alignment between the company's values and your own.
Constant or poorly managed stress.
Little or no prospects for advancement.
A difficult working environment (open space, noisy environment, etc.).
The list is long, and these causes can often combine… or accumulate.
