Take the survey
The same survey your respondents get. Nothing you enter is saved.
What it is
Seven-measure exit survey for departing employees. Covers departure drivers, compensation, growth, recognition, manager experience, return likelihood, recommendation, and two open-text prompts.
Best for
Any company experiencing turnover — exit signal is the single highest-leverage data to inform retention strategy. Anonymized rollups feed manager-level coaching conversations.
Not for
Companies with monthly departures in single digits — sample too small to act on month-over-month. Pool quarterly instead.
