We revisit our CACC framework for measuring workplace happiness, breaking down how Culture, Autonomy, Challenge, and Compensation create a personalized score to evaluate job satisfaction.

• CACC stands for Culture, Autonomy, Challenge, with Compensation as an offset factor
• Each person weighs these factors differently based on their individual priorities
• Two years after introducing CACC, we've seen our scores improve through role evolution
• Culture becomes more important when you can handpick and develop your own team
• Monthly CACC evaluation helps identify when it's time to consider other opportunities
• Compensation can offset lower scores in other areas if it's exceptional
• Your CACC priorities may shift as you age and your workplace values evolve
• Scoring below a C might indicate it's time to prepare an exit strategy
