Why do employees quit? 

Compensation, growth opportunities, and environment are usually the top 3 reasons cited. 

But what does all that actually mean to the employees and is there anything HR can really do to stop employees from fleeing? 

Jessica returns to sit down with Hebba to clear up what growth actually means, the biggest misconceptions about compensation, and red flags to look out for to identify toxic cultures. You’ll hear their take on why counter-offers shouldn’t be a regular practice and if it's even worth trying to recover an employee who is ready to jump ship. 

Plus, stay tuned as Hebba and Jessica later discuss navigating conflict in toxic work environments and learning valuable lessons from employee exit interviews.
