(NewsNation) — More than 3 million people in the U.S. left their jobs at the end of 2023, ending the stretch of the “Great Resignation.” Leaving a job, whether it is through resignation or getting laid off, can be an emotional endeavor.

Preply, a language learning company, delved into the emotional landscape of job quitting across the United States. A survey conducted of 1,016 Americans aged 18 to 76 shed light on the diverse approaches individuals take when resigning from their jobs.

Over 1 in 10 managers reported being unfairly yelled at by resigning employees. A significant 72% of managers viewed exit interviews as mere formalities rather than genuine feedback sessions.

One in 8 Americans admitted to posting emotionally charged reviews of former employers online. One in 8 employees strategically timed their resignations to create maximum disruption for their employers.

Most Americans (76%) opted for in-person resignations, while 9% chose handwritten notes. Conversely, 19% of employees resorted to “ghosting” their employers, leaving without any notice. Additionally, 1 in 10 decided to resign via text message.

The majority (91%) of employees avoided negative language during resignation. Nearly 3 in 5 employees restrained emotions or criticisms when resigning. Women (63%) were more likely than men (53%) to suppress emotions during resignation.

Ninety-five percent of individuals reported no regrets about their words of resignation. Men (7%) were more likely than women (4%) to regret parting words.
