Lack of career development is the one that stands out to me...I think that's a trend we're noticing too but I'm genuinely trying to figure out ways to make that pathway more clear/accessible

like

The first one is definitely relatable! I have learned to ask more questions about career advancement opportunities in interviews now because of dead-end opportunities or managers not knowing how to initiate the conversation about career advancement.

like

The lack of flexibility is going to keep growing. Upper management needs to adapt to new generations and adapt to changes. They can't expect people in their early career years to behave the same way as they did if salaries haven't kept up with inflation!

like

Interesting. I'm actually kind of surprised that 'lack of workplace flexibility' is so low on the list - especially given the shift to WFH during the pandemic. Seems folks on this platform value the option to work remotely over comp and other perks.

like

I agree with the first two. I know these reasons are at the top of the list. In my experience, it has always been the lack of career improvement.

like

That depends on what the person is looking for. Others would quit because there is no WLB even if the compensation and the benefits are really good. Others quit even if the pay is good and WLB is great because the management doesn't care about their employees or there is no career advancement.

like

Lack of career advancement is why I am leaving my current company and inadequate compensation is a popular reason for others that I work with. I’m surprised that flexible work options is higher as well.

These are all valid reasons!

Things have changed you’re absolutely right!

I feel like I may have been written off by the one partner, still get a fair amount of work from another and the third has never really given work but has a rep for doing things alone or using seniors.

Anyone else super unimpressed with administrative support with a new firm after lateraling? I told a partner I’d just take care of a routine task myself. He told me my rate is too high and to use a “project manager” (basically an intern they can pay less than a paralegal). We have a 40 person group and 3 project managers making starvation wages. Big firm. You’d know the name.

I just started with a company as an HR Generalist. Within the 3 weeks of being there, my boss’s boss left, and today I found out my boss gave notice. HR is not valued at the company and it’s disheartening to know I was hired into a mess. I am now actively looking but how do I explain to other employers why I am actively looking and what do I put on my resume? I have never had to deal with this before.

Hi all!
Would love some insight on how you went from an HR assistant/coordinator to an HR Generalist. I’ve been in the HR world for 8 years, and only in the last 2-3 have I really done real HR work. The first company I was at didn’t have a solid HR team so I don’t really count that. I feel like I’m ready to take on more responsibility and learn more. And of course make more money.

I have looked into getting SHRM certification. But should I go back to school and get my masters in Hr?
