Well if you live in Wales then you should be, according to a new survey.
Workers in Wales came out as the happiest employees with only 1 in 5 saying they are disillusioned in their jobs, the YouGov research for
TheCareerMole.com found.
Londoners, meanwhile, are the most likely to be trapped in job that they don’t like with 1.9 million (29 per cent) claiming that their jobs do not match their expectations.
The League of Disillusion survey showed that a quarter of employees across Britain - or 7.1m - say their job is not what they expected. The figures are based on a YouGov survey of 2,374 British adults in April.
Kristan Hall, chief executive of
TheCareerMole.com said: “Finding a job is not just a question of impressing a potential employer. Applicants should also vet the employer themselves to see whether the role they are applying for will actually suit them.
“Employers want to attract the most talented staff, which can often make people focus on selling their company rather than wondering if their applicants are right for the role or the company ethos.”
Hall added: “People who are content in their jobs work harder, do better and feel happier. It’s that simple. You spend a huge chunk of your time at work, so why sit in a job you hate?”
250 manufacturing jobs set to come to city
