Reasons Behind IT Worker Turnover [India Times] Wednesday 11/17/04 10:25 PM
Reasons for employee turnover among software professionals in India differ between early career stage workers and mid- career professionals.
According to a 5 and half year study, employees in the early
stage of their career (0-3 years) value money highly. They seek out the best jobs with the highest pay. Those at this stage also want to work on "hot technology."
The more mature workers in this group also look for learning opportunities. Sometimes, though, they may need to be mentored on the long term value associated with continuing education.
Also of note is the common practice by young software professionals of comparing their salary and project work with their friends and ex-colleagues. Family's opinion of the job is also important.
The mid-career software technologist (5+ years)
looks more at the quality and culture of the company. They seek out greater challenges and better leadership.
At this stage they are more focused on the big picture related to top management's competence and the company's vision and mission.
