Sign 10: Testers Keep Quitting

There are numerous examples of companies that are really good employers – they provide not only competitive salaries to their employees, but also various social benefits, such as additional health insurance, kindergarten for the children of the employees, possibility to actively sport, canteen, etc.
We shall also assume that the projects these employers are working on are really interesting and challenging and allow them to always use cutting edge technologies and broaden their skills and knowledge. Then, having both factors in mind – great working environment and great job itself, it's a wonder why there might be the case that your employees and colleagues keep quitting.
Well, in today's world there can be only one reason this happens – tension at work, lack of good management and definitely a lack of balance between work and personal life.

So, after a few phases of working under pressure, till late in the evening for a couple of months, your employees start quitting. Maybe you find it quite irresponsible on their behalf, but think what they might have lost during that time.

Never forget – happy employees mean better performance. Always pay attention.
