"A new research reveals that 66 percent of employees go to work wishing they were in a different job. The rest are in various stages of quitting their current employment.
Not earning enough money (23%) and being bored with their current job (19%) were the top reasons for looking for a change."

So it's really only about money!

Note: This was a survey done in the UK. It may not apply to India.
ReplyDelete78% of the respondents were non-managerial roles, and around 90% of the list were under the age of 40, of which 46% were less than 35, and 43% were 35-40. Also note that 48% were public sector employees (in the UK).
Given that ratio, it's deducible that if you're between 35 and 40, and not in a managerial role, you're not paid very well.
I won't read much into "bored with current job". All jobs are inherently boring, and I'm actually surprised only 19% of those looking for a change cite boredom.
