WBZ, Boston’s local CBS affiliate, recently spoke with Jay Zagorsky, senior lecturer in markets, public policy, and law, to discuss The Great Resignation. The reasons are varied and not just about higher pay.


โ€œWhy? Some people donโ€™t feel appreciated. Other people had the opportunity during COVID to reevaluate their experience. Feeling valued is really an important thing.”

Jay Zagorsky, Senior Lecturer in Markets, Public Policy, & Law

Zagorsky goes on to speak about the industries that are seeing less movement.
