Noncompetes are toast, and now it’s all eyes on job satisfaction and employee engagement. Remember when The Conference Board basically threw confetti, announcing job satisfaction was skyrocketing thanks to job-hopping and flex schedules? Well, cue the dramatic music, because Gallup just dropped a bomb — employee engagement is at an 11-year low. 😱
