## Resource

A new survey reveals that workers in their 30s and 40s are hitting burnout hard—nearly a third say their jobs feel meaningless, and a quarter are drowning in work with no time to finish it. These key contributors to the workforce also report low satisfaction, with 10% feeling their work doesn’t matter and a third calling it pointless. They’re also the least supported by employers, frustrated by broken promises and unrelatable leadership. When they leave, it’s rarely for the money—it’s about the work itself, lack of recognition, and clunky business processes. Companies need to rethink how they value and engage their core talent, because in today’s market, retention isn’t just about pay—it’s about purpose and respect.
