According to a new survey, employees have different attitudes and expectations about work as we enter the post-pandemic world. Among the findings:
- 53% of respondents say they’re more likely to prioritize health and wellbeing over work than before the pandemic.
- 52% of Gen Z and Millennials are likely to consider changing employers this year, up 3% year-over-over.
- 47% of respondents said they’re more likely to put family and personal life over work than they were before the pandemic.
- Over a third (38%) of workers say they are considering moving because they can work remotely and, therefore, live elsewhere.
- Gen Z and Millennials are more willing to change jobs in order to live in a different location (44% and 38%, respectively), while just 27% of Gen X and 17% of Boomers are considering the shift.
- Beyond pay, the top five aspects of work that employees see as “very important” are a positive culture (46%), mental health/wellbeing benefits (42%), a sense of purpose/meaning (40%), flexible work hours (38%), and more than two weeks of paid vacation each year (36%).
