Is your boss trying to make you quit without actually firing you?
Instead of layoffs, more companies are using subtle tactics to encourage employees to leave on their own. It's called quiet firing—and it can be difficult to recognize until it's already affecting your confidence, career growth, and mental health.
In this episode of Work Hotline, Sho breaks down what quiet firing really looks like, why companies do it, and how you can tell the difference between a temporary rough patch and a workplace that's intentionally pushing you out.
More importantly, we'll discuss what you should do if you think it's happening to you.

Where You Live Matters More Than You Think
Does where you live determine your career success?
We spend so much time talking about resumes, networking, interview skills, and AI—but what if one of the biggest factors shaping your career is something you never chose in the first place?
In this episode of Work Hotline, Sho explores how geography, timing, government policies, and the economy influence your career opportunities. From graduate unemployment in the United States to China's nationwide hiring campaign and Europe's dramatically different youth employment rates, we break down why two equally talented people can have completely different career outcomes simply because of where they live.
More importantly, we answer the question: What parts of your career can you actually control?
Whether you're debating moving to a new city, relocating for work, or wondering if your hometown is limiting your opportunities, this episode is for you.

I Think a Master's in AI Is a Scam (Here's Why)
Everyone seems to be rushing into AI programs, hoping another degree will future-proof their
career. But what if that's the wrong strategy?
In this episode of Work Hotline, Sho Dewan breaks down the surprising data behind today's
graduate job market and explains why more education doesn't automatically lead to more
opportunities.
From the explosion of AI master's programs to rising unemployment among younger master's
degree holders, this episode explores what hiring managers are actually looking for—and why
proof of work often beats another credential.
This isn't an argument against higher education. It's an argument against making expensive
career decisions out of fear.
Before you spend thousands on another degree, ask yourself one question: Are you running
toward your future—or running away from uncertainty?
