英文原文
You Quit. I Quit. We All Quit. And It's Not a Coincidence.
你辭兼耀，我辭，大家辭。這并非巧合瘤运。
By Emma Goldberg
Something infectious is spreading through the work force. Its symptoms present in a spate of two-week notices. Its transmission is visible in real time. And few bosses seem to know how to inoculate their staff against this quitagion.
在職場(chǎng)上窍霞，某種傳染正在蔓延開來(lái)。其癥狀表現(xiàn)拯坟，是一連串的離職信但金；其傳播實(shí)時(shí)可見。而且郁季，似乎很少有老板知道冷溃，針對(duì)這場(chǎng)“辭職傳染癥”，應(yīng)該如何給員工打預(yù)防針巩踏。
When workers weigh whether to jump jobs, they don't just assess their own pay, benefits and career development. They look around and take note of how friends feel about the team culture. When one employee leaves, the departure signals to others that it might be time to take stock of their options.
當(dāng)員工在權(quán)衡是否跳槽時(shí)秃诵，他們不僅會(huì)考慮自己的薪資、福利待遇和職業(yè)發(fā)展塞琼，他們也會(huì)留意身邊的朋友們對(duì)團(tuán)隊(duì)文化的感受菠净。當(dāng)一個(gè)人離開時(shí)，他的退場(chǎng)會(huì)向其他團(tuán)隊(duì)成員發(fā)出信號(hào)：是時(shí)候盤點(diǎn)盤點(diǎn)自己的選項(xiàng)了彪杉。
Career coaches worry that some people are being too easily influenced by the behaviors of their roaming colleagues. Kathryn Minshew, chief executive of the Muse, a job search site, warns clients that a single employee's desire to leave a company shouldn't have too much bearing on the decisions that friends make.
職業(yè)發(fā)展教練擔(dān)心的是毅往，有些人太容易受跳槽員工的行為影響。凱瑟琳·明謝爾是求職網(wǎng)站“繆斯”的首席執(zhí)行官派近。她告誡自己的客戶攀唯，單個(gè)員工的離職意愿不應(yīng)該對(duì)其周圍的人產(chǎn)生過(guò)多的影響。
"When one person announces their resignation, there are usually some questions from their colleagues," she said. "'Where are you going? Why are you leaving?'"
她表示：“當(dāng)有人宣布辭職的時(shí)候渴丸，他的同事們通常會(huì)問(wèn)：‘你接下來(lái)要去哪里侯嘀？你為什么要走？’”
That Pied Piper trail won't always lead people to better options, and Ms. Minshew advises workers to assess their companies with the hyper-individualized approach they might take to building relationships.
其實(shí)谱轨，跟風(fēng)跳槽未必是一個(gè)更好的選擇戒幔。明謝爾女士建議，員工在選擇雇主時(shí)土童，要像找對(duì)象一樣诗茎，用高度個(gè)性化的方式來(lái)評(píng)估他們的公司。
"The idea that somebody would publish a list of the 50 best people to marry in New York City is silly," she continued. "Similarly, I think the best companies to work for is a bit of a silly idea."
她補(bǔ)充道：“有人會(huì)公布紐約市最適合結(jié)婚的五十位候選人名單献汗，這種想法是不靠譜的敢订。同樣，我認(rèn)為評(píng)選最佳雇主的做法也有點(diǎn)兒幼稚罢吃〕纾”
