I'd say most people quite because they are unhappy. Specially good employees.
Someone unhappy will look for new opportunities. Someone happy probably won't (unless they came to them, which also happens). Sure, you can pay premium to protect against lower offers, but it's a tricky game.
Rands had this metaphor of "shields up/down" for those cases: http://randsinrepose.com/archives/shields-down/ http://randsinrepose.com/archives/shields-down/
- badrabbit 8y agoA lot of employees are unhappy. But not all of them quit. My point was that unhappiness can be endured but there is usually something specific that causes the employee to give up on the company. For me and a few others I know who left for a better opportunity,we were already unhappy but we wanted to stay,endure and make it work.but we all had specific moments where we decided the employee-employer relationship is unacceptable. We didn't merely drift out of our jobs out of unhappiness that built up over time. The only exception I know is people who get burned out.
