Is the Great Resignation over? Sort of.
There are still about 4 million people quitting their jobs each month, near record highs seen in 2021. But organizations are clawing back some of the leverage they ceded to individual employees over the last two years. The significant wage bumps that were so prominent in 2021 and even early 2022 seem to be over. At the same time, a slowing economy and a fading of COVID-19 into the background has given some employers more confidence to pull back on their remote work opportunities.
Still, there’s a talent shortage in key areas, and if one industry is experiencing problem there are many other industries eager to hire employees away. As part of this year’s Essentials, Korn Ferry’s experts highlight how hiring and retention are adapting as the Great Resignation morphs into an environment that looks much more like 2019 than 2022.
Below is the best of Korn Ferry’s articles on the topic.
