Rage applying, moonlighting, and quiet quitting emerge as leading employee trends in 2024

Inadequate pay is among the main factors driving these employee trends.

The hiring landscape in Singapore this year will be defined by moonlighting (18%), rage applying, and quiet quitting (14%), according to the latest survey by Indeed.

“Factors behind these trends include inadequate pay, negative workplace culture, lack of career progression and flexibility,” Indeed commented.

Correspondingly, flexibility (20%), pay increase (16%), promotion and career progression (14%) and learning and development (13%) are the main aspirations of employees in Singapore this year.

Additionally, employees who perceived themselves as working in a job with a negative workplace culture are four times more likely to leave their workplace versus those who rated their organisation's workplace culture as extremely positive.

To meet these new goals, 31% of workers claimed they would look for new jobs this year.

Of the employees wanting to move jobs in 2024, 42% said they wish to join a larger organisation for better resources, pay, and career prospects.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
