I got this on the release date and I couldn't wait to play it to be honest, was just so excited about it. I created 3 female human sims and one female alien sim for my family to experience the new careers with.The Careers:Started with the doctor career first, it was pretty basic to start with, just talking to your co-workers and bringing the patients their food but you could cure them of their illness if you wanted, which I did..of course I did :PI got promoted to an orderly the second day I went to work with my sim and it was actually vastly different which surprised me and I was quite pleased about that. You had to admit people to a hospital bed and it was surprisingly realistic,people just kept on coming into the hospital waiting to be admitted to a bed and it was hard for me to keep up so it did feel hectic, the way it should since that's how hospitals actually are. Once the patients were admitted to a bed, you had to basically give them a general check up (ears, mouth swab, etc). Since you're just an orderly at this point, some of the information would go over your sims' head so you had to give some of the information to someone of a higher rank (e.g doctor). My sim failed to get a mouth swab the first time which I thought was kind of amusing since she drops it lol but she got it the second time I tried.By the end of it, I did 'poor' work apparently lol. Hey! I was doing my best! It's stressful being in the medical career ya know! :P Overall, I did enjoy it but at the moment it isn't my favorite career, which surprised me because I was expecting it to be, but I'm sure it will be some peoples' favorite :)The second career I tried was the detective one. I was interested in it but not as much as the medical career (I wanted to be a surgeon once), but I was curious about the detective career nonetheless. On the first day your duties were to get a case file and then travel to the crime scene. My first crime scene was what looked like a 'break-in', there was graffiti and broken electronic appliances in this sims' family's house. The next step was getting a witness report from one of the sims', I got more than one since I thought it would be better to get more reports to help with the case file. After that, I tried to collect as much evidence as I could at the crime scene, taking pictures of the evidence and swabs of the evidence, etc. After I was finished, I returned back to the police station and processed all the information in this machine (I can't remember the name of it). Which was pretty cool, bright lights and such :P The evidence got passed on to a sim with a higher rank since you're only at the bottom of the career ladder and it's only your first day After that the duties were to process criminals at the station, taking their mughshots, fingerprints and searching them. Sadly I couldn't do that because there weren't any criminals at the station, which I found a little odd but oh well.The second day was a repeat of the first day but I ended up getting promoted by the end of my shift, so I decided to try it again for a 3rd day running. It was quite different this time. I was able to make my own case file from scratch, travelling to another crime scene and getting the evidence. After I did that, I had to go and try and find the culprit who did the crime, asking other sims if they'd seen the sim who matched the description I had. I found it quite challenging because there were a few sims around who fit the description so it took me a few tries to find out who it was. If you falsely accuse a sim, it looks bad on your report. When I eventually captured the guilty sim, I had to process him through the police system and take his mugshot, fingerprints, etc. At the end of the shift, I did good work which surprised me considering it took me 3 attempts to get the guilty sim and I didn't have enough time to do all the things I needed to do with the guilty sim, but it was still fun.Overall, I enjoyed the detective career, a little bit more than the medical one. It was fun, involved and had the usual silly sims humor. It did make me want to get deeper into the career like the medical one so they both do a good job of pulling you in and wanting you to get more gameplay out of it.Last but not least, the scientist career. I have a massive love of science, always found it to be so interesting. Especially when it's space related. On the first day, my duties were to talk to some of my co-workers like usual and then I had to experiment with a few machines, which was pretty cool because they're huge and quite interesting to look at, like the giant laser. Then my duty was to create this device. It was fairly big and it reminded me of those metal balls you had in school to mimic the orbit in space with the sun in the middle and the other planets around it and you spin it to make everything rotate the way it does in space. I thought that was pretty damn cool for some reason, guess it's just the 'geek' in me?Anyway, after that it's your job to create a food serum. I wasn't completely sure what was going to happen but I gave it a shot. First I had to go and harvest two plants for the food serum, there was a little garden at the back of the science lab. After that was done, you analyze the vegetables/fruit from the plants in a machine (like the dna analyzer in the detective career) and then it makes the serum. Next step was drinking it or giving it to someone else, I chose to drink it myself cause that's more fun right? :P It was successful and it filled up my hunger after my sim drank it. Which even though it was a simple and basic task to make the serum, I thought it was pretty cool and it got me to thinking what other things my sim will be able to create and what things we'll be able to invent so I'm quite curious about the science career. So yup, you guessed it. It's my favorite out of all the careers!The careers overall are amazingly fun, creative, involved and funny. I think every simmer will enjoy finding their own favorite and experiencing them on a deeper level as they advance further into the careers. I'm having a lot of fun with them myself so I can't wait to get further into it all.Clothes, hair and makeup:The new hairstyles were different but not really my style, there were a decent amount of new ones so I'm sure some simmers will be happy about that but I just didn't care for them that much since the majority of the styles were short and shaved (Miley Cyrus type hair), but they'll appeal to some people, just not me.I was a little disappointed on the selection of the new clothing because there wasn't that many and again not my kind of thing, but some tops were quite nice so it wasn't a complete dissapointment. I just wish there was more choices but hey, for me it's not that big of a deal since it wasn't why I got the game.The makeup was quite unique and different. A lot of bright, pastel colours. I did assume they were mainly for the aliens since they look quite 'cyber' and kinda out there, fairly dramatic. But you could use them on a regular sim, I just wouldn't because it was just too much but when I created my alien, they looked amazing on her.Aliens:I did create an alien, my curiosity getting the better of me so I just HAD to. It was a pretty cool experience, there's a wide range of skin tones to create an alien (I chose a light blue colour). I won't go into too much detail about them because I find the aliens kind of a special experience and they're always a really cool addition to the sims when they're around. They do have a few powers to use on regular sims though and it's quite funny :) I am aware of the new alien world that's available once you get high up enough in the science career so that should be interesting to go to once I get to that point.Verdict:As a whole, the new expansion pack is a lot of fun and I'm quite impressed at how much content there is and the amount of things to do. I'm really enjoying it and I highly recommend you buy it. I haven't really found any negatives to be quite honest. The important thing is the gameplay and I loved it so I find no fault in it. It's added a lot more hours of fun since the base game is quite bare and gets boring after a while and The Sims Get To Work definitely helps with this problem many simmers have found issues with. Looking forward to more expansion packs in the future!

This expansion pack is certainly fun to play through; the medical, scientist and detective careers have more imaginative content than I'd expected, and I quickly found myself waiting for the next work shift so I could play some more. I like the grading in each career; for example as a medic, in the early levels of employment you can carry out tests on patients but you won't be able to interpret the results, which is an ability you slowly gain as you move up the ranks.The alternative to the playable and non-playable careers is opening a shop, which will be familiar to anyone who remembers the Sims 2: Open for Business expansion. You can sell pretty much anything, from decorative items to bakery goods,and I particularly like the mannequins that you can customise and use to sell clothing. There are plenty of options for managing your store, like paying for advertising and hiring employees (who you can promote/check on/dress/praise etc). There is also a handy menu for transferring money from your home lot to your store, and vice versa.The new hairstyles and clothes aren't that exciting, but I'm more than satisfied with the main focus of the expansion.I can't give it five stars because I've found a few bugs, and the game would have to include more than three career play-throughs to have the wow factor, but I think it's worth the money, and the Sims 4 definitely needed this expansion.

Having bought Sims 3 and never really getting along with it, I returned a few years later to play it once again. I found (for some reason) I could enjoy it without the furstation I had with previous. However the sheer amount of expansions left me daunted so decided to start anew with Sims 4.I found this game a lot more fun to play then Sims 3. Although there were features I missed, such as buying up part then full ready made business around the town.. and actually walking around the town. I missed the various shps and such you could visit (and buy) and find the buying via bookshelf or PC in the house a little too much of a short cut..I found the whole 'house management'side most pleasant and less frustating to play.I have marked it down a star for these two missing features as it does make the game seem a little claustrophobic.

The first sims 4 expansion has come after a long awaited time. The get to work expansion adds a lot of content to the game including a new world, clothes, furniture and even aliens. I haven't throughly explored all of the content yet but so far it's brilliant. The fact that you can now control your sims whilst they work in certain careers makes you feel even more involved in your sim's life. My sim is currently in the scientist career and it is fantastic - very amusing also. You get to create lots of cool inventions experiment with certain objects and even get the chance to explore another planet. Overall I would reccomend this expansion and hopefully the next ones keep getting better!

Probably the best expansion pack of them all.You can follow the Sims at certain of their work places.The detective one is my favourite. You gather clues, analyse them and then get hints about the suspect (eg. red hair, female, wearing shorts) and then you get to find them and arrest them. You can also interrogate them, be a good or a bad cop.It can get a bit repetitive towards the end of their career but you always have the option to send the Sims to work on their own too.If you should buy one expansion, it should be this one.

9.1.2018

The best Sims 4 expansion pack so far in my opinion! The Sims 4 on its own gets boring quite quickly after having played The Sims 3 where there was so much more to do. However "Get To Work" has renewed my interest in the game. It adds the medical career, the scientist career and the detective career, and gives you the option to go to work with your Sim; something that has never been possible before. In addition to this there is also running your own business which can be almost anything you like.

I've actually really enjoyed this expansion. I like that it gives you new tasks and things to do. Although, I find if you don't go to work with them it can be really hard for them to progress in these careers so it takes a lot of time. I still don't like the constant loading screens of the sims 4 as opposed to 3, but it adds a new dimension of fun to the game.I loved open for business in sims 2 so I also love that this feature is now back!

18.4.2015

Love this expansion pack. You get a lot of new content like aliens in the game play,you create them in create a sim and you can there home world, there 3 active careers police, doctor and scientist. This expansion also let's you own a store in the new world and in the other world's.this expansion pack focuses around careers. There are lots item used in building your home and in create a sim.I strongly recommend this sims 4 expansion pack.

28.9.2018

I dont see the point in owning sims 4 if you don't own this extra. It allows you to go to work with the sims you create. And frankly. The game is a little dull without this.My personal favourite part of sims is the house building. I spend hours and hours just building a house. But if i am actually going to play the game. I play this addition. Because sending your sim off to work and just seeing the timer speed up makes the game dull

Initially had a problem with the game but uninstalled then reinstalled and it was fine. Love the new professions even though they can be hard work! Some great little features with each profession and cool items, really enjoyed this expansion pack and look forward to the next. As a sims fan for a very long time I was intrigued to see what they would come up with for this but was very pleased with it. Arrived quickly.

Both me and my granddaughter love this game , it is interesting and amusing sometimes you can play it seriously and sometimes make the sims people fun. You can send them to the gym for a meal or on a visit to the library and museum. But the best thing is building the houses and filling them with lots of luxury items. The go to work is interesting but I think could do with the possibility of working at more jobs

9.5.2016

Hours and hours of fun. Takes the original Sims game and brings in new elements, story lines and ways to improve you character. Being about to go to the work place with your Sim is makes the game far more interesting and opens it up to new adventures. Three new careers available that you can progress though and continuously opening up new things as you level up keeping it interesting from start to finish.

4.5.2015

Absolutely worth it! 3 new careers fully explorable with your sims and the "open your store" give you a lot of new contents and a different way to play. Explore all careers give you a lot of hours of play. There are some little glitch but you can easly rip off them cleaning your cache or repair your game with EA tool. If you love The sims, you love this exp pack too.

16.5.2015

The first of many expansions allows players to follow their sims to work for the first time. You can play as doctors, detectives and scientists or even take your chance in retail. The expansion also adds alot of new clothing and items as well as aliens!! It is a fantastic expansion and is a must for sims 4 gamers.

20.8.2015

just incase people didn't know, it's an expansion pack and not the full game. My girlfriend and I have been playing sims 4 for a few months now, and after a while it gets boring so this expansion pack adds a bit of colour however hopefully there will be better packs to comecheck out SnapGamePlay K on youtube
