(7/13) How to Ride the Great Resignation Wave

By Joanne Kaldy / July 13, 2021

A recent survey found that 52% of 2,000 employees plan to look for a new job in 2021, a 35% increase over a year earlier. To prepare for the turnover tsunami, it’s important to understand why people are leaving:

  • 36% say they want better compensation and corporate benefits.
  • 25% are looking for better work-life balance.
  • 16% are frustrated by lack of recognition for their work.
  • 8% are seeking a better corporate culture.
  • 5% say their current company’s values don’t align with theirs.
  • 5% lack a strong relationship with their peers.
  • 5% say they are considering a job change but don’t know why.
