Employees: Why Would You Leave Your Organization [POLL]
We’ve all seen the articles about “The Great Resignation”. While I’m not surprised that employees are considering their options, I am curious to know why. Everyone seems to have an opinion and I don’t really see a consensus.
A few years ago, we did a quick poll on HR Bartender about why employees leave companies. I thought it might be a good idea to update our information to reflect the work landscape today. Over the past few months, we’ve clearly shifted to a candidate-driven market and organizations are trying to figure out how they attract, hire, engage, and retain employees.
I hope you’ll take a moment to answer this completely unscientific one-question anonymous poll. If you were to start looking for a new job today, what would be the number one reason?
Again, since it’s only one question, I hope you’ll take a second to respond. As always, it’s completely confidential and I’ll publish the results in a week or two.
Organizations say that engaging and retaining employees is a top priority. If that’s true, then understanding the reasons that employees may start looking is key.
