According to a new survey, many American workers gave a lot of thought to their professional future during the pandemic:
- 36% of workers say that they have been thinking about what they really want to do and are planning to take a new job in the future.
- 32% say they plan to leave their current job because they dislike the culture at their organization.
- Nearly half of workers say they are more likely to quit without another job lined up now that they were before the pandemic.
- 43% say they wouldn’t accept a new job if they were required to go into the office every day.
The authors said, “The last 18 months have given us all a lot of time for introspection, and many professionals realize that the day-to-day grind of their jobs just isn’t worth it, and it’s time to pursue work options that are more fulfilling and provide purpose.”
