A key to a great retention rate is making your top performing team members aware of your appreciation for them and their results and is always important but especially timely now.

As reported on CNBC, Amazon has upped the ante in their ‘return to work’ policy. While their previous return to work requirement was a minimum of 3 days per week in the office but the new mandate (as of September) will require all employees to be in the office 5 days a week as of January 2 at the latest. Will this trend spread to more companies next year? Do you think company culture is strengthened with everyone in the office? Does it improve collaboration? Will this result in substantial layoffs for Amazon employees who do not comply? https://lnkd.in/gbiwEUbu We’d like to hear your thoughts:   #amazon #returntooffice #remotework #jobmarket

The September job numbers were a pleasant surprise and demonstrate a resilient job market continuing. On the other hand, this strong September Jobs Report also suggests that we shouldn’t expect another cut in interest rates. What are your thoughts about last month’s numbers?   https://lnkd.in/gpztuv7u #jobsreport #jobs #lightingjobs

Remote? In the Office? What we see most these days are some sort of hybrid arrangement, whether it’s 4 days in the office every week or 5 days a month. Here are the latest trends according to Inc.com:  https://lnkd.in/giQVCfFu   As an employer or employee—what type of schedule for you is most effective and productive?   #remotework #hybrid #workplace #jobs  

  Many managers are trying to re-set pay levels for new hires according to an article in WSJ last week. Does a lower offer trend vary by people out of work vs. currently employed? People responding to an ad versus people not looking who were recruited? Too early to tell if this will be short-lived yet, but what are your thoughts? https://lnkd.in/g2Yz9Re8   #jobs #offers #jobmarket #salaries #compensation  

A very Happy Labor Day from Pompeo Group to all of our lighting candidates, client partners and colleagues! #happylaborday #laborday

The new Starbucks CEO is barely onboard and already a controversy is brewing. He’s certainly not the first #CEO to have a hybrid work arrangement, but the question is should a CEO be allowed to work remotely, particularly in a highly visible role focused on rebuilding culture?  We’d love to hear your impressions. #remotework #hybridwork
