Are you happy at work? What factors are important to job satisfaction over the long haul? In today’s job market, it has become uncommon to work at the same company for your entire career.
The typical employee works an average of 3.7 years at the same company. What factors in the workplace foster employee loyalty and what sends employees running for the door? This topic will be discussed this Wednesday, July 31st at 10:30 A.M. (PST) in our monthly twitter chat, #PayChat.
PayScale recently released a new report on Companies with the Most and Least Loyal Employees, which looks at how employee tenure varies among Fortune 500 employers.
