Alternative work arrangements, defined both by working conditions and by workers'
relationship to their employers, are heterogeneous and common in the United States. This …

We synthesize two related literatures on firm-level drivers of wage inequality. Studies of rent
sharing that use matched worker-firm data find elasticities of wages with respect to value …

We use a hypothetical choice methodology to estimate preferences for workplace attributes
from a sample of high-ability undergraduates attending a highly selective university. We …

This article estimates workers' preferences for firms by studying the structure of employer-to-
employer transitions in US administrative data. The article uses a tool from numerical linear …

We propose a framework to identify and estimate earnings distributions and worker
composition on matched panel data, allowing for two‐sided worker‐firm unobserved …

What happens if an employer cuts wages by one cent? Much of labor economics is built on
