Job Likes & Dislikes
No definitive answers jumped out when we asked respondents what they most and least like about their current jobs. However, what we did see is that colleagues can definitely work for and against job happiness. "The people I work with" is a common factor across the top three likes (25%) and dislikes (16%). As for other factors, respondents seem to most like their jobs when they're dealing with interesting technology (32%) and have the chance to learn new things (18%). On the flip side, exposure to new technology factored as a dislike for only 7% of respondents, who as a whole gave more weight to inadequate staffing (20%) and lower-than-desired pay (18%) as reasons why they most disliked their jobs.
