When people look for new jobs, there are often a few main factors they take into account: salary increases, job title, company culture, and more. But one thing you may not have considered — yet absolutely should — is the quality of senior leadership. According to Glassdoor research, senior leadership is the second top predictor of employee satisfaction, carrying even more weight when it comes to overall happiness than compensation and benefits or work-life balance. Given this, if you’re looking for a job that you’ll truly love, looking at companies on Glassdoor’s Highest Rated CEOs UK* list is a great place to start.
