If you work in real estate, you
chose one of the happiest careers, according to a new survey of more
than 60,000 employees from 13 different industries. Real estate ranked
number 2, behind consumer products and services, in TINYpulse’s “2016
Best Industry Rankings” survey, which studied employee engagement and
satisfaction across 13 industries.
The study found three themes emerging among this year’s most satisfied workers:
- “Culture is key”: Happy employees tend to boast about having great teammates and management that displays transparency.
- “It’s not where they start; it’s where they finish”: Employees need to feel like they have a place for advancement.
- “Employees want to have a say”: Employees want to feel like their company values feedback and take it seriously.
