“…Career satisfaction is a concept similar to job satisfaction, with two variations: (1) it embraces a longer-term perspective and (2) the spectrum of facets being considered in the assessment transcends a specific position/setting and refers to broader professional activities. It is a retrospective evaluation of how satisfied practitioners are with their choice of, and experience within, pharmacy as a profession across the various jobs they have held [ 7 , 8 ]. Thus, career satisfaction entails a fusion of both past and present considerations, whereas job satisfaction is restricted to the present.…”

Gender and Pharmacists’ Career Satisfaction in the United States

Job satisfaction reflects pharmacists’ evaluation of their current work experiences, while career satisfaction is an evaluation of how satisfied pharmacists are with their profession across various jobs. The objectives of this article were to measure career satisfaction and specific facets of current-job satisfaction of U.S. pharmacists, compare satisfaction across genders, and examine the determinants of career satisfaction. This study was based on self-reported survey data collected from a random sample of licensed pharmacists practicing throughout the United States. The sample consisted of 422 men and 315 women. Within each gender, pharmacists’ career satisfaction was modeled using ordinary least squares as a function of three sets of variables: personal characteristics, earnings and workweek, and other job-related variables. Female pharmacists exhibited higher levels of contentment with their careers than their male counterparts. Their career-satisfaction levels were not affected by age, marital status, annual earnings, or average workweek, covariates that systematically influenced male pharmacists’ career satisfaction. Job satisfaction substantially affected pharmacists’ long-term career satisfaction. Male and female pharmacists responded differently to stimuli, so a uniform set of work-related incentives may not be effective for both genders. Initiatives perceived by male practitioners as increasing satisfaction may be adversely perceived by female practitioners, and vice-versa.

“…They are engaged to the extent that they put extra effort into their work, acquiring more knowledge and improving their skills, consequently performing better in their jobs, and developing a sense of achievement, evaluating their careers in a positive way (Ngo & Hui, 2018). Research has also demonstrated that employees who are more engaged at work are also more satis ed with their career (Boštjančič & Petrovčič, 2019). So, there is a positive association between affective commitment and career satisfaction (Joo & Park, 2010).…”

“…Thus, job satisfaction is a surrogate for career satisfaction (Moreo et al, 2020). In this way, they are intimately related constructs , mainly because individuals who experience satisfaction in their job, will also be satis ed with their career (Boštjančič & Petrovčič, 2019).…”

Greenwashing occurs when companies deliberately deceive or mislead stakeholders regarding their environmental practices or benefits of a product/service. Most existing greenwashing studies focus on consumers, and the effects on employees have seldom been examined. Furthermore, little is known about how employees may respond emotionally to their company's greenwashing practices. Accordingly, the current research conducted an empirical study of the relationship between employees’ greenwashing perception and their career satisfaction. The mediating roles of organizational pride, negative emotions, and affective commitment are also examined. Based on information collected through a questionnaire applied to 398 Portuguese employees, a quantitative, causal, cross-sectional study was carried out, using structural equation model techniques, through AMOS. The results indicate that employees’ perception of greenwashing relates negatively to their career satisfaction, organizational pride, and affective commitment. In turn, negative emotions are positively impacted by greenwashing. The results also reveal that the path between employees perceived greenwashing and their career satisfaction is established not only directly, but also through organizational pride and affective commitment. This study extends the literature by addressing the neglected side of employees’ emotional reactions to greenwashing. Based on the central premise that corporate greenwashing is inherently an immoral act, we draw upon appraisal theory and moral foundations theory to investigate short-term (affective commitment, negative emotions, and organizational pride) and long-term (career satisfaction) work-related effects as an outcome for greenwashing.

“…Despite the similarities, job satisfaction must not be confused with career satisfaction, as the rst is concerned with the employee's overall affective, cognitive and evaluative reaction towards his/her current job, and the second relates to the satisfaction one feels with de accumulation of career-related experiences (Dacre Pool & Qualter, 2013). Nevertheless, job satisfaction is a surrogate for career satisfaction (Moreo, Cain, & Chang, 2020), so they are intimately related constructs (Al-Ghazali et al, 2021), individuals who experience satisfaction in their job will also be satis ed with their career (Boštjančič & Petrovčič, 2019). Brie y, career satisfaction refers to employee's perception of the accumulation of their experiences in several jobs and their progression over time in these jobs (Al-Ghazali & Sohail, 2021) that translates into the feeling of selfful llment, achievement and satisfaction (Salleh et al, 2020).…”
