<strong>Prepare</strong> <strong>For</strong> <strong>Success</strong><br />
Defining The Optimal Employer<br />
Evaluation<br />
“I hate my job” or “my job<br />
sucks” are the standard cries<br />
of many people who want to<br />
change jobs.<br />
However, various research<br />
from HR consultancies and<br />
corporate ‘exit’ interviews<br />
suggest that about 85% of<br />
people in fact, don’t hate the<br />
job itself, they actually hate<br />
the company they work for<br />
or the people they work with.<br />
And yet, people always talk about it being the job’s fault.<br />
Job seekers often think solely about the job. They just don’t give enough<br />
thought to the company that is going to provide that job. They’re so focused on the role, the<br />
responsibilities, the reward package (all very important, obviously) that they fail to consider<br />
just how much ‘the company’ will influence just about everything about the job.<br />
The ‘company’…<br />
• y employs your colleagues – the people you either love or hate<br />
• y sets standards of Habit and dress codes<br />
• y creates the atmosphere you are going to work in<br />
• y buys the furniture you sit on<br />
• y decides on benefits<br />
• y sets the rules by which people are promoted (or not)<br />
• y establishes the systems, processes and rules that you either find fair or unjust<br />
• y … the company even decides what is in the vending machine<br />
