This made them seek better balance between their careers and personal lives, good pay, and more fulfilling careers.
Amid “the Great Resignation,” the phrase “Nobody wants to work anymore” became acommon expressionamong business owners and HR professionals who were having difficulties hiring new people.
During that time, people were looking for flexible work options because they wanted to spend more time with their families. Many people also took some time off to gainnew skillsso that they could improve their career prospects.
That sentiment still holds true today. A recent PwCsurveythat involved 56 thousand workers worldwide found that aspiration for job hopping has risen significantly. According to the report, 28% expressed the desire for job change in 2024 compared to 19% in 2022 when the Great Resignation happened.

Atoxic job culturecan push employees out the door. You may experience burnout if you feel you are working a lot without being fairly paid as an overtime worker. In some cases superiors can be rude to their juniors,disrespecting themand their contributions.
While on a job search, if individuals come across poor compensation packages, they may not even apply for the position. Can you imagine working at a place that forces you to work even when you are very sick? It’s off-putting when companies do not care about thewell-being of an employee.
And these posts are examples of what a company should definitely avoid doing. Have you ever received a ridiculous job offer? Share this with your friends and colleagues so that they won’t forget they deserve good pay!
I got a $0.25 raise this year which absolutely is not keeping pace with inflation. And then I walk into work and see the owner’s new toy
I bet it’s posted right next to a sign complaining that no one wants to work anymore
American work value makes me sickIt’s so fking gross that people applaud this shit. We shouldn’t have to do this. We shouldn’t have to because we’re broke, or because they’re short staffed, this isn’t okay. I’m so sick of society deep throating overwork.. instead of paying what people should be paid & prioritizing mental health & family st like this is applauded or like when I was a single mom and worked 3 full time jobs to stay afloat literally seeing my kids 15 min at a time in between naps and breaks. No THANK you.
I’m a skilled tradesman who is supposed to get a $3000 bonus at the end of the year for making the company $150,000 in profit, per my contract. I doubled it, which is supposed to increase my bonus. This is what I received. 100% done with this industry
