Generating that list will take a lot of time and effort. I think there will be like hundreds of categories. But let's say I have a list of categories and it's ready to be used, how can the posts be auto-assigned to the relevant categories?


I tried using AI but I wasn't successful. It generates a lot of similar variations of a specific category and if I provide a list of options it still uses categories that are not on the list.


Make it two separate tasks. Once it’s categorized everything and there are too many categories, set it a separate task to consolidate categories.

I'm still improving the list but currently, here are some of the things I use to figure out if a company has good work-life balance (not all are required):

- Has 40 hour or less work weeks

- Rarely requires overtime work

- Has a good amount of paid time off (Bonus points if they encourage employees to take a time off, like they require you to utilize all your paid time off and/or they provide a bonus if you take a time off)

- Remote friendly

- Communication is asynchronous by default

- Well known publicly that the company value work-life balance

- Offers good employee benefits (e.g, https://basecamp.com/handbook/08-benefits-and-perks)


Thanks for the recommendation! I'm currently reading their company culture page (https://about.gitlab.com/company/culture/) and doing further research about Gitlab.

Since you mentioned Gitlab, I remember their database incident last 2 years and if I remember correctly, instead of blaming and firing the engineer who accidentally deleted the production database, they owned the responsibility and admitted that there were lots of red flags from the company side of things like db backups weren't working etc... I think they handled the issue properly. So plus points for them <3


Also that thing with adding telemetry-by-default. After the initial surprise and backlash, they were exceptionally transparent throughout the whole process. Although I have always given them points for a solid open core regardless of enterprise, their handling of the situation actually gave me a net positive impression of their treatment of their customers as well.
