HIGHLIGHTS: Are you loyal to your company? A third of workers say they’d leave their current job if someone else was willing to pay them the same amount they’re making now. For just a 5% pay bump, it jumps to almost 50%.
FULL STORY: Are you loyal to the company you work for? Or would you jump ship as soon as you got the chance?
A new poll found a third of us would leave our job if someone else was willing to pay us the SAME AMOUNT we’re making now. No raise required.
Almost half of us would leave for as little as a 5% bump in pay, and two-thirds would bounce for a 10% pay bump. So, most of us aren’t really THAT loyal.
It was part of a survey that looked into what makes us feel valued at work. 81% overall said they’d be more motivated if they felt appreciated more often.
It found the “most meaningful forms of appreciation” are, quote, “personalized forms of gratitude” . . . and getting a raise is second? (Thanks, but I’ll take the money over that pat on the back.)
Other meaningful forms of appreciation at work include promotions . . . bonuses . . . extra paid time off . . . a one-on-one conversation with your boss . . . and awards like “Employee of the Month.”
