The workplace is changing, and people are leaving their jobs. Microsoft’s 2021 Work Trend Index reveals that nearly half the global workforce considers quitting this year, and 46% say they’re likely to move and work remotely.

The pandemic has changed the way we live and work, and while many will return to the office, things will most likely never return to what we regarded as the pre-pandemic standard of normal.
