What makes employees stay? It’s a question worth thinking about. Headlines continue to signal that the Great Resignation is in full swing, and companies are struggling to retain employees and recruit new ones, particularly for roles that were already hard to fill. Some have defaulted to boosting pay or improving benefits. That might draw in some new talent or make some existing employees change their minds about leaving, but for many organizations, it’s not financially sustainable.
