All 8 Survey Questions

Satisfaction vs Engagement — and Why It Matters
Job Satisfaction
How happy employees are with specific aspects of their job — pay, balance, management. The employment deal. You can have satisfied employees who are not particularly motivated.
Employee Engagement
Emotional commitment and discretionary effort — whether employees go beyond the minimum. About passion for the work. Satisfaction is a prerequisite, not the same thing.
If satisfaction is low, engagement initiatives won't work. Fix the structural issues — compensation, balance, management — before investing in engagement programs. Run this survey first to know where you actually stand.
Question 7 ("How likely are you to still be working here in 12 months?") is the strongest early warning signal for voluntary turnover. Low scores here require immediate attention regardless of other scores.
