Uncover exclusive findings about the employee experience—from work-life balance to employee confessions and remote vs. in-office trade-offs—plus how data empowers today’s workers.
New research shows that employees are committed to their jobs, but the lines between work and personal time are increasingly blurred—and that cuts both ways.
One in three (32%) hybrid or remote workers have taken a “quiet vacation” in the last year, and 41% of all employees—led by younger generations—take unreported personal time off during the workday.
In-person workers report feeling more stress than remote or hybrid workers, however 51% of all workers say they are more productive when working in office.
Managing the boundaries between work and personal life is a struggle—over a quarter of workers (28%) are asked to work while on vacation, and a third have difficulty disconnecting from work while on vacation.

Our research uncovers that data has a big impact on all aspects of work—from good decision-making, to proposing an idea with confidence, and having trust in teammates and leaders.
When making important decisions, 75% of employees would trust a person with data more than someone with a higher job title. That number jumps to 80% for C-level executives.
More than eight in 10 workers are very comfortable making decisions when they have data to back it up, however, 31% say the leaders at their company make decisions primarily based on intuition.
Two-thirds (64%) of workers have made a poor decision at work due to some issue with data, which is higher for C-level executives than for individual contributors.
“Today’s workplace is diverse and dynamic, shaped by age, identity, education, workspaces, and ever-evolving ways of working. Our goal is to illuminate the true nature of modern work, break through outdated myths and generalizations to deepen our collective understanding of the employee experience.”
