Two-thirds of Indian knowledge workers likely to switch jobs in 2023: Study

Around two-thirds of knowledge workers in India are likely to switch jobs next year for reasons that include burnout and disconnection with senior leaders, a survey report said on Wednesday.

At least 54 per cent of India’s knowledge workers–professionals who use their analytical and theoretical skills to develop services or products–felt burned out in the past year, according to the survey by software firm Slack Technology.

The situation is worse in organisations with up to 199 employees. In such places 59 per cent of knowledge workers have felt overwhelmed, compared to 48 per cent in organisations with more than 1,500 employees.
