We're all thinking it, and not enough of us are saying it out loud: the old employer-employee contract is officially dead.

The rules we built our careers on are quietly falling apart. Loyalty. The career ladder. The chase for 100% retention. The perks arms race. Some companies are slashing benefits and reinventing them in the same breath. Others cut jobs for AI, then quietly hired the same people back. 

So which of these rules are worth keeping, and which ones are sabotaging your culture right now?

Join Zech Dahms, President of Achieve, for a candid, no-spin conversation with Mita Mallick, Wall Street Journal best-selling author and workplace strategist, on the real state of work and where we go from here. 

• Is loyalty dead? 
• Did the career ladder collapse? 
• Is 100% retention actually the goal? 

Together they'll bust five outdated rules still quietly running the modern workplace, and map out how to build stronger, more resilient cultures on the other side.
