How much does your team appreciation actually cost?
Consider this simple math (all based on the range of Millennials and Gen Z research papers):
Tech company size 100:
- out of those 90 are Millennials and Gen Z
- out of those 10 would leave in a year
- and out of these 6 would leave due to the lack of appreciation and recognition at work — the unappreciated ones.
Hiring costs for ‘the unappreciated’ group
The average turnover cost when hiring in-house ranges from $3,000 to $7,000. When an agency is involved, it jumps to $25,000 and in many organisation the overall costs of a new hire hits $50,000 mark. In our example, the company hires people in-house — it is a lean startup, as you may see.
- 6 × $5,000 (in-house hiring) = $30,000
As you may know, Karma can eliminate the lack of appreciation at work. No one has ever left their job because of too many ‘thank-you’s.
Keeping at least a quarter of previously unappreciated people for longer — is the direct savings on turnover 🥳
Saving with Karma
With these very modest assumptions and the current early-days pricing Karma would save at least $7,242.
Good team leaders have been able to see this in Karma for a years now. More than 1,400 teams use it daily, that means 100,000+ people sending 1M+ of ‘thank-you’s to each other Karma is fun and it helps distributed teams around the globe. It directly affects the costs of turnover, saving money on the turnover costs.
