Does it pay to be nice? Personality and earnings in the United Kingdom

Does it pay to be nice at work?

Be aggressive to earn big bucks at work!

Lip service won’t make you a leader, even with a facelift

It doesn’t profit women to be nice at work

It pays for women to be like a man

Act like a man and you’ll earn more? Pft!
