Two recent Harvard Business Review posts cited some interesting statistics from the September U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data. "As of January 2012, the median time that wage and salary workers in the U.S. had been with their current employers was just 4.6 years," according to the first HBR post by David K. Williams and Mary Michelle Scott. "Other recent data points are equally disturbing: The staffing company Randstad says that 40% of employees are planning to look for a new job within the next six months. Another survey notes that 69% of employees are already at least passively shopping for new job opportunities via social media today."
