We now have a page on The Sims 4 Journey to Batuu.
It's not what I would have hoped for in a Star Wars Game Pack so far.
The Sims 4 Business Career
Rewards for Investors and Managers
Sims 4's Business Career offers Management and Investor Branches
Career Quick Links
The Sims 4 Business Career features both Management and Investor Branches. Both of these may offer you opportunities that could, at random, make your Sim some extra money based on what you select and some random variation. The Career relies heavily on the Charisma and Logic Skills, no matter which branch you take. While it starts with an Ideal Mood of Energized, it shifts to Confident at Regional Manager (level 5) while the Career offers you to select a branch upon reaching level 7. Since Emotional buffs are fairly easy to get, you don't need any special traits to pursue either of these Careers. However, Outgoing and a Popularity Aspiration (to give the Gregarious Bonus Trait) may be helpful to leveling Charisma and making Friends. While Friends are not necessary, it's just a perk to be able to have your social interactions succeed more often and perhaps level Charisma faster.
How to: Business Career Cheats
Press Control + Shift + C then type testingcheats on and press enter. You can now get promotions with careers.promote business - you can also see all Career Cheats or visit a full list of Cheats in The Sims 4.
The starting Daily Task, Fill out Reports, can be found on the Computer under the Web menu. Filling out Reports may sometimes give your Sim a Bored Moodlet, "Paperwork Drudgery". This is tough, as it takes a few hours to do and you're already gone for the 9-5. Just accept that your Sim has less time in the early levels and will eventually get a better job without the boring paperwork.

Management Branch Rewards offer Confident Auras
The Management Career Branch features Confident Aura items, which are appropriate for the Career however not very useful for gaining progress in it because they don't work when you're out of the room. They may, however, help with the success rate of Make Business Calls (found on the Phone under Household), which may only be done from 8PM-8AM on Weekdays - meaning your Sim needs to do them after work hours. Making these calls can help you get promoted faster so long as you have the Skill requirements met. Sims who make successful calls may get a Confident or +2 Embarrassed Moodlet depending whether they succeed or fail at the deal. It's more important you complete them than if you bother to make them. I'd do them after work so that there is no chance of going into work totally embarrassed and risking some kind of freak accident emotional death. In order to get Confident before Work, you can simply Psych Self Up using a mirror or make your Sim brush their teeth.

Investor Career
Sims 4's Investor Branch offers Focused Items
Investor Benefits
The Investor Branch has an Ideal Mood of Focused. It is the one I'd prefer between the two choices here, simply because of the Invest in Stock ability. Researching Stocks is the daily task (done under Computer > Web) and can give a +1 Focused Moodlet when complete. You'll also gain the ability to invest your Sim's money in stock. It seems that if you first use the Research Stocks ability and get the Moodlet you will have better results from investing, although you can still lose money. You can get up to 2.5x your money, or lose big and get only 20% of it back - there's a huge range of possibilities. Sims may invest $1,000, $2,000 or $5,000. In the long run, it seems worth the risk if your Sim has the Simoleons to spare. Investments may be made every 48 hours.
The Investor's Career Reward of items that give Focused Moodlets may aid in Investing, but is sure to help in other computer-related endeavors like Programming and building their Logic Skill should you place a Chess board or other Logic-building item within the same room. The easiest way to get Focused before work is to use a chess board and ponder moves just before the carpool arrives.

Guide to 'Get To Work' Expansion Pack
Is the economics degree the correct information listed for the level boost of the investor branch, as my sim got a degree w/ honors then when I got a business job it put him at level 1 not Investor 8 but other careers seen to work ok
The Guide information is all correct and every time I play test this scenario (with any career) my Sim always starts at the correct boosted level that matches his/her degree. I am really unsure how to help as it simply always works for me. Maybe you joined the incorrect career for the degree your sim got? I just really don't know. I see quite a few comments saying their sim didn't get the expected degree boost to their career..but I just don't have enough information as to why it goes wrong for players.
I'm wondering how much the pension for a business tycoon is daily. I have a sim who became elder and has lots of vacation time left. So I'm wondering if it is worth it to retire him before using it up or if I should run it out first.
I'm dying because I just noticed the nod to The Office (US) in the names of the career levels. LOL!
