If Your Boss Can’t Hold a Job, Can You?
Constant turnover at the top can be distressing, but is it problematic enough to turn down a job? In FINS’ informal Sign or Decline survey, 36% of 691 respondents said they’d turn down their dream job if their new manager had been replaced three times.
While low turnover rates have historically been championed as an indicator of great management and company culture, some experts say that turnover rates don’t mean what they once did.
Working under a manager in a high-turnover role could be an advantage, says Roy Cohen, a career coach in New York City and author of The Wall Street Professional’s Survival Guide.
“If you come in in a more junior capacity, below management level, it offers you the opportunity to figure things out without the pressures of being a manager,” says Cohen.
