A woman in human resources (HR) took to LinkedIn to share insight into why people often quit their jobs after only six months or a year of joining. She cited four reasons that mainly lead employees to leave their new workplace.

LinkedIn user Bharti Pawar wrote: “Employees don’t join to quit the company in 6 months or a year. They gave up because.” In the following lines, she added four reasons – “Toxic work culture”, “lower pay, unpaid overtime”, “work pressure beyond limits”, and “nepotism and office politics”.

“Nobody likes frequent layoffs at work. The environment forces them to do so,” she added at the end of her post.

Since it was shared a few hours ago, the post has garnered close to 1,400 likes. While some agreed with HR’s viral post, others shared their own stories.
What did LinkedIn users say about this viral post?
“Even I’ve been dealing with it a lot these past few weeks. No matter how hard I work, my manager always scolds me in a humiliating way. Not only me but also all my colleagues face the same problem. There, tolerance towards an honest employee is at its peak,” said a LinkedIn user.
“Essentially, HRs should bridge the gap between talent and management, but what is widely visible is that HRs, mostly in small and medium-sized organizations, get involved in creating rifts and petty politics just for cheap benefits or to the rest authoritative. They have become mere tools for blowing the corporate notebook, taking the moral high ground, cutting costs and wages while practicing the most abominable things that are unfair to people. Therefore, HRs have become the new synonyms for villains in the corporate world. What I’m witnessing day in and day out is that people have started to hate HRs more than their EXS, and that feeling is more than personal,” commented another.
“Each company must be well-reviewed on Glassdoor and through other third-party means before we join. Why should only employers have the right to refuse? Employees should have it too and there should be strict laws or regulatory measures to sue bad employers. It’s high time, this has to be stopped!!” published by the third.
“And sometimes they don’t even get a chance to quit because they’ve never been employed (freshman year),” shared a fourth.
“It’s hard to disagree. However, job-to-job hopping is increasingly becoming a safer way to increase earning potential in a highly competitive talent environment. The days of 10- or 20-year careers are becoming a thing of the past, especially as the world becomes more digitalized,” suggested a fifth.
“Since you are employed in human resources, at least you would know that the employer is not always to blame. Sometimes an employee leaves the company for a bigger package or other benefits!” wrote the sixth.
Earlier, a similar post went viral in which a woman talked about a hiring trend that is becoming increasingly popular in tech companies – “ghost jobs.” Consequently, some companies are asking their HR staff to continue interviewing candidates despite an internal “hiring freeze”.
