60% of women say they’ve never negotiated their salary—and many quit their job instead
A majority of women, 60%, say they’ve never negotiated with an employer over pay. But that may be leading to women changing jobs more frequently, since 72% say they’ll leave an employer to get a salary bump somewhere else.
That’s according to a new report from staffing firm Randstad US, which surveyed over 1,200 employed U.S. adults. Women, as it turns out, are much more likely than men to make a lateral move to improve their salary. And just over half of women are already considering leaving their jobs because they feel underpaid.
