Five Hard Truths About Hard-Working Employees: Prioritizing Workload Management

In a LinkedIn post, entrepreneur and careerist Ankur Warikoo talks about five hard truths about hard-working employees: trustworthy employees get more work, good people get less feedback, risk-averse ideas, office politics, and openness. Warikoo writes, "If you do a good job, you'll get more work done consistently because you do a good job." He says that a trustworthy employee sometimes pays for the same quality. There's often one employee in the office who says, "Get it done fast." One extra job and then a third job means it's hard for him to keep up with the workload in 2025. Microsoft's Work Index says it's been hard for him to keep up with the pace over the past five years.
