Employee retention is a complex phenomenon that can be difficult to predict broadly, not to mention down to the level of a single employee.
The latter is the topic of a recent blog post — titled Why You Shouldn’t Link Culture and Retention — I read on HRE Online, which addressed why people leave organizations with great cultures.
Getting past the headline, the argument appears to be that cultures should not be used to retain people because of the fundamental human tendency towards boredom.
