People typically leave their jobs for three reasons: they were offered a better one, they don’t see a growth path, or they don’t like their bosses. As a recruiter, I see all of these scenarios play out, but boss troubles are the most common by far—and they don’t always stem from employees’ direct supervisors. Sometimes it’s your boss’s bad boss who sets the tone for everybody, a problem that can be harder to detect as an outsider.
