But a new global study of 5,500 workers and small-business leaders finds the mass exodus is being driven mainly by members of Generation Z, those who have spent the least time in the workforce, and millennials. The study by software and data analytics company Adobe found that more than half of Gen Z respondents reported planning to seek a new job within the next year. The generation also reported being least satisfied with their jobs, 59%, and with their work-life balance, at 56%. Nearly two-thirds of them, 62%, said they felt the most pressure to work during "office hours," even though they said they do their best work outside of normal office hours. Companies are facing extreme difficulty finding workers, with more than 9 million open positions nationwide. A variety of reasons have been offered for this situation, including worries about the coronavirus, responsibilities caring for children or elderly relatives, and low wages. The study suggests the trend will continue, with 35% of workers surveyed saying they plan to switch jobs in the next year. Of that group, 61% said they would do so to exercise more control over their schedules. Another study released this week from human resources consultants Galagher found that 72% of companies surveyed either raised or plan to raise their base salaries in 2021. <cite>ZannoL posted [p:958801446] in Study: Mil...

It fucking makes me angry to hear our head manager say last month "I don't understand why no one is staying." This same company has issues with communication, subpar training, shitty pay, shitty hours, old and broken equipment and supervisors that either don't give a damn or they micromanage the fuck out of the employees. He can't understand why the turnover rate sucks though. --- The 17th King of the State of K <cite>KStateKing17 posted [p:958801807] in Study: Mil...

There will be plenty of people on payroll and corporate refuses to staff more than a skeleton crew because its cheaper for them, which results in overworked and underpaid workers. This gives the customer a worse experience and they, in turn, take it out on the workers -Most places dont offer job benefits -Workers unions dont fight for higher pay anymore, like they did for previous generations.

bigblu89 10/07/21 3:48:00 PM #40:	Duncanwii posted... I don't think they thought that far ahead. They just wanted to contribute to the fuck capitalism culture now they have no way to get funds. Or they're moving to jobs that aren't the mental dredge that we've been told to "suck it up" about for decades. The study suggests the trend will continue, with 35% of workers surveyed saying they plan to switch jobs in the next year. Of that group, 61% said they would do so to exercise more control over their schedules. So if they can find a job with similar pay that better fits their personal schedule, more power to them.

Jobs used to have things like seniority and pensions that got better with time spent in one place and now all that is gone. Being fired used to be a really big deal because you'd have to start all over. Now being fired usually means you get a job that pays you better elsewhere because of your experience. Nah, being fired is still not a good look. It will take you 2x as long to find a job if you admit to being fired. --- There is something good in all seeming failures. You are not to see that now.

orangefire25 10/07/21 5:11:55 PM #47:	Yeah I don't like my job too much, today ironically was especially shitty, but I've admitted to my immediate supervisors I'll leave as soon as something better comes up. I'd never tell the store manager or owner that, but my shift leaders are realistic. I told one supervisor this week I would leave our restaurant immediately if the one an old coworker transfered to wasn't such a commute for me. Sucks.
