According to Glassdoor's 2025 Worklife Trends report, nearly two-thirds of professionals report concerns of career stagnation, including 73% of tech workers. Despite this angst, quit rates are down from their Great Resignation peak, sitting below pre-pandemic norms due to a softer labor market.
"The desire to quit is there, but the opportunities aren't," explains Glassdoor lead economist Daniel Zhao. "That pressure is boiling underneath the surface, and if there comes an opportunity to relieve that pressure-because the job market heats up, and people find opportunities to quit-then that pent up pressure will be released."
Though the report suggests 'a wave of revenge quitting is on the horizon,' Zhao says we're not likely to see another Great Resignation-or anything close to it-in 2025.
