Here's what's happening this week:

Last Week’s QOTW Poll Results:

Q: If you are passed up for a raise going into 2024, will you look for a new job?  

  • Yes - 52%
  • No - 27%
  • Undecided - 21%  

The poll reveals that over half of the respondents would consider seeking a new job if they do not receive a raise going into 2024. This finding underscores the importance for companies to be mindful of their employees' compensation expectations and highlights a significant risk for employers in terms of employee retention. The results suggest that it is crucial for companies to communicate transparently about their financial position and any barriers to increasing compensation. This communication is key to maintaining trust and understanding among employees. Additionally, in situations where salary increases are not feasible, employers should consider alternative forms of compensation. Options like flexible work arrangements, a positive company culture, and employee recognition programs can be valuable in lieu of direct financial rewards. These alternatives could help mitigate the risk of losing employees who are dissatisfied with their financial compensation. Want to talk more about staying competitive with compensation?
