Locations
Get to Work includes a new independent neighborhood - Magnolia Promenade. Magnolia Promenade is not a full world, and contains four lots, three of which have prebuilt stores, and one empty lot that the player can build their own business on. Get to Work also includes a secret lot called "Sixam" (which is "Maxis" spelled backwards), which can be found using the Wormhole Generator, available at level 10 of the new Scientist Career. Sixam is a great place to find some alien friends or find new collectables.

Theme
Get to Work is the second expansion pack in The Sims series to include Sim-owned businesses, the first being The Sims 2: Open for Business.

Aliens in Get to Work are the first aliens in the series not to only have green skin. Get to Work is the second expansion in the series to feature "active" professions, the first being The Sims 3: Ambitions. The active careers in Get to Work are Science, Law Enforcement and Medicine.
