This tech company has the most burned out workers

Burnout at work is very common these days, but if you work at a tech company it seems to be amplified. And now we know which companies are emotionally exhausting workers thanks to a new survey from workplace app Blind. The app asked its 11,487 users, many of whom work in Silicon Valley if they were experiencing work burnout, and over half said yes.

The survey then produced a list of the top 30 companies with the most employee responses to burnout with 25 of them having a burnout rate of 50% or higher, and 16 of the 30 have a burnout rate higher than the survey’s average of 57.16%. Not good news.

So who is crying at the drop of a hat and who is sitting easy? Well life is good if you work at Netflix, PayPal, Twitter, Facebook and Uber. Facebook and Netflix are known for their employee perks and promoting work-life balance so that would make sense that their workers are not feeling too much burnout. Credit Karma came in last with 70.3% saying they were stressed which begs us to ask, what are the managers at the company doing to their employees and do they know the definition of karma?

Tech jobs are in high demand right now and companies are putting the pressure on their workers to produce. Plus, with more tech hubs sprouting up outside of Silicon Valley, like in Colorado, Michigan, Utah, Montana, Washington, North Carolina and Minnesota, there is extra pressure to be outstanding. However, companies should take note that HR leaders attribute 20% to 50% of their annual turnover to burnout.
