From The Globe and Mail:

Employers aren't making much progress on the employee (dis)engagement front: 15 per cent of Canadian working stiffs report that their jobs are “extremely boring,” according to a survey released Thursday.

Almost 30 per cent say they are stuck in dead-end jobs, and 38 per cent consider their job as “just a way to make money, rather than a career,” Royal Bank of Canada found in a poll of 2,052 Canadians conducted on its behalf.

Only 36 per cent told the polling firm, Ipsos Reid, that they are “very satisfied” with their jobs – down significantly from the 49 per cent who were very satisfied when RBC tested the mood of Canadian employees a decade ago.
