Good bosses and employees\u00a0know that feedback should be given well and given often. Unfortunately it seems the percentage of people who continue to get valuable feedback in the later half of their careers seems to be dwindling.<\/p>\n

The over-40 slump<\/b><\/p>\n

According to the latest reading of an ongoing query<\/a> by Comparably<\/a>, 25% of employees over age 40 say they “never” get valuable feedback on how to improve at work. Just 18% of younger workers, by contrast,\u00a0say the same.<\/p>\n

Sampling of age groups:<\/p>\n

18 to 25<\/p>\n

\"11\"<\/a><\/p>\n

46 to 50<\/p>\n

\"46\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The same pattern in experience<\/b><\/p>\n

From an experience perspective, the trend seems to follow:\u00a0employees with 3 years or less experience\u00a0seem to receive valuable feedback\u00a0every week or every month; employees with 3 to 10 years’ experience receive valuable feedback once a quarter; and employees with 10 years’ or more experience receive valuable feedback “never” more than any other option.<\/p>\n

10+ years’ experience<\/p>\n

Education\u00a0and gender appear to be disconnected<\/b><\/p>\n

There doesn’t seem to be a correlation with level of education or gender in terms of the frequency of getting valuable feedback.\u00a0Employees with their high school diplomas were just as likely to say they get feedback once a week, month, or year nearly as often as employees with a higher education.<\/p>\n

The ranking was mostly the same between men and women, with\u00a0very slight variations: women were just slightly more likely to say they get valuable feedback every week, while men were slightly more likely to say they get feedback once a quarter.<\/p>\n
