There is a great deal of focus being placed on recruiting and retaining talent across all industries. Therefore, a lot of emphasis is being placed on building job satisfaction among a company's workforce. This isn't limited solely to what they offer to keep their employees happy and well-balanced, such as BAE Systems' Wellness Incentive Program. This question is also aimed at whether you lack career satisfaction, are burned out, or whether you bring a great deal of your drama to work with you, which can negatively impact the productivity of their teams. A person who manages their time well and ensures they successfully address all the demands of their personal and professional life can balance both spheres and keep one from bleeding into the other.

BAE Systems' Essential Health and "Wellness Incentive Program encourages you to take care of yourself and earn incentive dollars while you do it. You'll learn more about your health, stay on top of screenings, and improve areas that could be better. You'll earn incentive dollars for each step you take, and your covered spouse or domestic partner will, too!"

"I consider myself a pretty well-rounded and pragmatic person. I rarely get sucked into other people's drama, even those I am close with. I am very organized with my time, set boundaries for myself and those in my life, and make sure my days are as stress-free as possible. Most things that stress us out are preventable simply by effectively managing your time. I prepare for tomorrow's workday. I make sure the gas tank is full, my clothes are laid out, my lunch is prepared, and I always arrive to work early. I also make sure I get off work on time, don't take my work home with me, and prioritize all my needs and personal obligations accordingly, so I don't take them to work with me."
