People don't quit their job they quit their manager

[Anonymous]

Do you agree with this saying?

[Anonymous]

Yes. Left a job and colleagues I liked very much for this reason about 10 years ago and might be headed that way again.

[Anonymous]

yes

[Anonymous]

Absolutely

[Anonymous]

Unless it is a money thing

[Anonymous]

yes that's so true

[Anonymous]

Disagree. Many people leave good jobs with good bosses for better opportunities.

[Anonymous]

I am leaving my job for more money.
But I only stated looking because I got an awful new manager.

[Anonymous]

Yes, generally true. So many people should never be managers of others.

[Anonymous]

As with any absolute, sometimes it’s true and sometimes it’s not.

[Anonymous]

I agree, I’d leave a bad manager for less money.

I may leave a good boss for more money but less likely

[Anonymous]

No. I was burned out and tired of the company politics. My manager/exec was my only saving grace. I stayed way longer than i should have because of him. Im lucky I guess.

Sounds like you are proving the OP’s point. You stayed b/c you like the manager.

I did!

I really liked my supervisors in my last job but the job itself was awful. They did their absolute best but had trouble retaining people, it was a tough place to work.

I’ve been at my current job for 9 years now and don’t like management nearly as much. I like my immediate colleagues very much and I like the actual job so it’s easy to tune out the management, since they are a little removed from us in the day to day work.
