Inc Survey: What Makes Employees Unhappy

Inc: What Makes Employees Unhappy - RF CafeInc magazine recently conducted a poll about what employees need from their employers in order to be happy and stick with their jobs. Responses depended heavily on gender (that thing we're told has no distinction in the workplace) and age (which is OK to discriminate against). Here are some findings. Overall, 69% like their co-workers and 54% like their bosses. 33% hate the stress level and 28% think they're not being paid enough. 18% expect free beverages, 17% feel owed a personal smartphone, and 8% want free massages. 45% of Men want more money and 39% want a promotion, while 51% of Women want reduced hours and 50% want flexible hours (uh-oh, that doesn't fit the media template).
