American workers and their boss

Maru Public Opinion released the results today of a survey conducted for the American City Business Journals (ACBJ) that finds three quarters (74%) of American workers “like” their boss and that over the course of the pandemic less than one-in-10 (8%) of all workers indicate that their relationship has become worse with their managing superior. The results also show that one third (35%) of American workers admit that they have left a job they otherwise loved because of a manager/boss that they didn’t like, and one-in-10 workers are currently looking for a new job only because they dislike their boss/manager.

Finally, one quarter (24%) of workers say that there’s no amount of pay that would make a difference either way to get them to stay at a job with a boss/manager they did not like—but for all others, there is a price that could be paid to keep them on the job (at least for now.)
