What aspect of a job satisfied you least?

The things that are least satisfying in a job experience are pretty universal. Most people would agree on staff not doing their job or passing the buck to be the most annoying. Another problem that essentially can make or break a team is negative attitudes and backstabbing gossip. When an employee is not committed to team productivity and looks out for #1 (themselves only) it lowers work moral and the organization looses that sense of cohesiveness that fosters productivity. These examples are just a few of the ways that ultimately lead to frequent staff turnover and decrease good employee retention rates. From a managerial point of view, employees need to hear positive feedback when their work is above standard. Employees should also be listened to when they have a problem or concern and believe their opinion matters. This gives them the chance to feel they have a vested interest at their workplace and this also helps to retain good and worthy employees.
