It seems any residual power employees had during the Great Resignation has been snuffed out — many Americans believe this year marks the start of the “Big Stay.”
MyPerfectResume surveyed nearly 2,000 Americans, finding that 80% predict 2024 will be the year workers stay with their current employers. Given the waves of layoffs since the end of 2023 and into the first months of this year, it’s unsurprising that workers seem more hesitant to job-hop. On top of that, 45% of survey respondents predict that the number of remote job openings will drop, too, making the labor market even less attractive to job seekers.
