Workforce Inside: PwC Pulse Survey Insig...

PWC
About this episode

Employees have had more than a year to reflect on their needs and aspirations, and many want a new model of work. Our latest US Pulse Survey found that employees are looking for a new job. We also talked to executives, many of whom said they are seeing higher turnover than normal. In this episode, we discuss why CHROs and HR leaders are faced with two critical challenges at once: retaining employees and leading the charge on making hybrid work a success.
