“The Great Resignation looks set to continue — 1 in 5 say they’ll change jobs in the next year”
May 25, 2022
“The Great Resignation is set to continue, according to a new global survey by PwC, with one in five saying they are likely to switch jobs in the next 12 months.
PwC launched its “Global Workforce Hopes and Fears Survey 2022” at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Tuesday, which surveyed more than 52,000 workers in 44 countries.
The consulting firm said in a press release that higher pay, more job fulfillment and wanting to be “truly themselves” at work are the factors pushing workers to change jobs.
Some 35% of respondents are planning to ask their employers for more money in the next 12 months…”
I think there’s some silver lining to this story. There’s a lot of companies that don’t want to train people. When a person tries to break into a new field the first thing employers say is “no experience.” O.k. How are they suppose to get experience if no one hires them. Someone has to give them a chance. Another thing is insane overtime. I know people that make 25 cents a hour because they are on salary and they work so many hours. It’s dumb. People are starting to catch on to this mess. Nobody wants to be taken advantage of.
Don’t worry. The way it’s looking companies will be begging people to apply. Job applications are going to start looking like “Are you alive? Great come join us.”
