A new survey organized by LinkedIn and the Adler Group reveals some fascinating facts about what will make an employee want to stay longer in your company, varying by country, age, and sex. Here are the results:
Across the 18,000 employees in 26 countries that were asked, 72% actually feel somewhat satisfied or very satisfied with their jobs, 14% are neutral, and only 14% are dissatisfied. Surprisingly, most of them (85%) still consider a career change.
Top 3 Motivators for an Employee to Accept a New Job Offer
- Better compensation and benefits.
- Good work-life balance.
- Opportunities for advancement.
Conversely, people don’t seem to care about these conditions in a new job:
- Job title.
- Office location.
- Relationship with managers.

The Relationship Between Pay and Job Satisfaction
Let's take a look at the meta-analysis by Tim Judge and his colleagues in 2010. The authors reviewed 120 years of studies to synthesize the findings from over 90 quantitative studies. The results show that the association between wage and job satisfaction is really weak. There is less than 2% overlap between pay and work satisfaction levels. Also, the correlation between pay and pay satisfaction was just slightly higher, showing that employee satisfaction with their salary is mostly independent of their actual salary.
When the authors conducted group-level comparisons, they found that employees earning wages in the top half of their data range had the same levels of job satisfaction as employees earning wages in the bottom half of the data range. According to engagement research on 1.4 million employees from 192 organizations in 49 industries and 34 countries by Gallup—a U.S. research-based, global performance-management consulting company—there is no considerable difference in employee engagement by pay level.
