A Whole Lot to Be Thankful For
We've all got gratitude on the brain this time of year. And here’s something to be especially thankful for: employee happiness is on the rise.
Historically, Q3 sees dips in eNPS. But this year? We saw an uptick, according to our latest Employee Happiness Index report. What’s more, employees with longer tenures (3+ years) are happier than their newer counterparts for the first time since Q3 2023. While there’s still work to do, this signals that employers are doing something right when it comes to engaging their teams.
As Anita Grantham , BambooHR’s Head of HR, says:
"Employee happiness is more than just a metric—it's a reflection of the culture and values that organizations cultivate every day. This unexpected rebound in Q3 highlights the resilience and adaptability of teams across various industries. By focusing on meaningful engagement and genuine connection, companies can create workplaces where people feel valued and inspired to do their best work."

The HR pros we can’t stop talking about
Last month, we announced the winners of our HR Experience Makers Awards at Customer Day. These HR pros were nominated by peers for their exceptional contributions in areas like Employee Experience, Business Growth, and Strategic Leadership. Each winner received a $2,000 paid-paid vacation stipend (a BambooHR favorite!) for some well-deserved R&R. Read more about the winners and the incredible impact they're making.
