What Do Employees Really Want? Spoiler Alert: It’s Not Another Pizza Party.
Shockingly, quarterly Little Caesar’s doesn’t fix employee retention problems.
We all know what happens when you’re completely burnt out at work, right?
Someone’s quit, maybe a few people have. Something changed in the policy. Something hit the fan. And now you’re doing the work of two or three people.
EVERYONE is doing the work of two or three people.
You try to send your feedback to management. “We can’t keep doing this, more people are quitting under the pressure, something’s got to give!” you try to reason.
And what comes of it?
Why of course, management listens closely to your concerns, and ultimately they agree to hire more people and adjust policy to ensure productivity still happens without damaging the employees’ mental health!
LOL, just kidding. They give you a pizza party.
Because obviously the best way to create employees who are dedicated to their jobs and willing to stay in it for the long haul is to give them two slices of pizza before you push them even harder.
