Entry-level workers are most likely to say that their companies care about their careers — but there’s work to be done.
Experience and career investment
Just 63% of entry-level workers say their companies are invested in their career growth — the most of any experience level, according to the latest reading of Comparably’s ongoing query of workers across the tech industry. That compares to 42% of workers with 10 years experience or more, and 47% of all workers overall.
Age matters
Indeed, employees’ views on whether their employers are invested in their careers appears to decline with experience level. It also declines with age, bottoming out among those closest to retirement: just 32% of workers aged 56 to 60 say their employers are invested in their career paths.
By department and gender
Workers in executive roles showed the most positive about their employers, with 63% of women and 61% of men in those positions saying they feel their career growth is a company priority. Men in IT and women in communications showed the lowest rates of feeling that way (39% and 31%, respectively.)
The figures come from a Dec. 11 reading.
