Tech's Great Resignation: Flexibility or Bust

A survey of over 26,000 employees reveals that 40% of tech workers quit their jobs due to inflexible work arrangements regarding hours, location, and intensity. This contradicts the growing trend of companies mandating a return to the office and longer hours. While companies like Amazon, Meta, and Google push for in-person work, citing innovation, mentorship, and productivity, the survey highlights that remote work boosts team cohesion, and a significant majority of tech workers prioritize flexible working options. Ignoring these needs could lead to continued talent loss in the tech sector.
