这可能是“大留任”时代,也可能是“人才大停滞”时代,这取决于你询问的是谁。在这个时代,员工没有掌握雇主迫切需要的技能。但这并不意味着这些员工愿意跳槽去做任何一份旧工作。

事实上,根据纽约联邦储备银行(Federal Reserve Bank of New York)最近的一项调查,美国人表示他们跳槽需要新雇主提供的薪水已经跃升至创纪录的81822美元。这一数字较上年同期增长了约8%,也是纽约联邦储备银行跟踪调查这一数据十年来的最高水平。纽约联邦储备银行将这一数据作为其定期消费者预期调查的一部分进行跟踪调查。

但调查显示,不同员工群体对薪酬的期望值大不相同。受过大学教育的年轻男性的薪酬期望值最高,而他们的薪酬已经高于平均水平。

对于年薪超过6万美元的员工来说,他们表示跳槽需要新雇主提供的最低工资(经济学术语称为“保留工资”)接近10万美元,几乎是年薪低于6万美元的员工跳槽需要新雇主提供的最低工资5.1万美元的两倍。男性员工的保留工资为95500美元,远远高于女性员工表示跳槽需要新雇主提供的平均工资66300美元。

(根据大量调查)虽然男性的薪酬期望值一直高于女性,但近3万美元的差距是这项消费者预期调查开展十年来男女薪酬差距最悬殊的一次。

毋庸置疑的是,员工的愿望并不等于现实。在同一项调查中,期望获得工作机会的员工表示,他们期望的平均薪酬为7万美元(男性为8.2万美元,女性为5.7万美元)。在美国,一个家庭的平均年收入为7.4万美元。

那么,如何解释对高工资的突然需求呢?富兰克林邓普顿(Franklin Templeton)最近的一项调查显示,生活成本的上涨促使越来越多的员工表示,他们担心收入、退休和医疗费用等问题。调查发现,今年,财务健康的重要性超过了身心健康等问题。虽然工资一直是员工工作的主要原因之一,但生活成本危机使其变得更加突出。

该公司负责退休、保险、529计划和财富管理的客户营销主管雅克·里尔登(Jacque Reardon)对《投资新闻》(Investment News)表示:“尤其是今年,提高薪酬的观念显得尤为突出。我确实认为通胀与此有很大关系。”(财富中文网)

It may be the era of the Big Stay or, depending on who you ask, the Great Talent Stagnation, in which workers just can’t come up with the skills employers are desperately seeking. But that doesn’t mean those workers are willing to jump ship for just any old job.

In fact, the salary that Americans say they need to change jobs has jumped to a record $81,822, according to a recent survey from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. That’s a roughly 8% increase from a year ago and the highest figure in the decade that the New York Fed has been tracking this question as part of its periodic Survey of Consumer Expectations.

But pay expectations are very different among different groups of workers—and they are greatest among young, college-educated men who are already making above-average pay, according to the survey.

For workers making over $60,000, the lowest pay they say they’ll need to change jobs (known in economic terms as the “reservation wage”) is nearly $100,000, almost double the $51,000 workers making under $60,000 say they’d need to jump ship. And male workers put their reservation wage at $95,500, far more than the $66,300 average pay women workers say they’d need.

While men’s pay expectations have always been higher than women’s (according to a multitude of surveys), the nearly $30,000 difference is the largest the male-female gap has been in the decade that the Survey of Consumer Expectations has been conducted.

To be sure, workers’ wishes are not the same thing as reality. In the same survey, workers who were expecting a job offer said they expected pay of $70,000 on average ($82,000 for men compared to $57,000 for women.) And in the U.S. overall, a household makes $74,000 a year, on average.

So what might explain the sudden demand for much higher pay? Blame the rising cost of living, which is driving more and more workers to say they’re worried about issues like income, retirement and health care costs, according to a recent Franklin Templeton survey. This year, financial health eclipsed issues like physical and mental health, the survey found. And while pay has always been one of the major reasons workers work, the cost-of-living crisis has given it renewed salience.

“This year in particular the concept of more compensation came out loud and clear,” Jacque Reardon, head of client marketing for retirement, insurance, 529 and wealth management at the company, told Investment News. “I do think inflation has a lot to do with that.”
