Why Identifying a Company’s Culture Can Lead to Higher Job Satisfaction

January 28, 2019 by Richard Butler Leave a Comment

No one wants to feel discouraged or depressed. When you join a company or work for an employer, you want to feel happy and successful. Troubles tend to plague people in many areas of life. These troubles may creep into professional careers, which can prove disastrous. The wrong attitude in the workplace could undermine performance. Employers might not tolerate attitude issues or a lack of motivation for long.

With tragic irony, employers may contribute to an employee’s less-than-upbeat attitude. The wrong corporate culture may undermine worker outlooks. Sometimes, the corporate culture is fine. The employee, however, cannot identify the culture, leading to an inability to mesh with a company. So, learning to recognize a particular corporate culture must become a top priority.

The Dissatisfaction Crisis

Untold numbers of people are thoroughly dissatisfied with their job, but there is some good news about job satisfaction. PR Newswire reports, “51% of workers feel satisfied with their jobs. Meaning that 49% of workers don’t feel satisfied. That’s quite a number compared to the total number of workers in the United States.” The number represents a majority, but it is not a good figure at all. With all the opportunities in the many industries, more people should be happy. And many businesses are trying to improve workplace conditions, but it doesn’t seem like it’s improving at a fast enough rate to keep up with the decline in satisfaction.

A tremendous volume of workers aren’t pleased about their current work situation. Low pay, lack of health coverage, limited career options, and monotonous work factor into these downbeat feelings. Regardless of why people feel bad about their career, negative feelings won’t be helpful. Improvements become difficult when experiencing job dissatisfaction. Someone “down in the career dumps” may lack the motivation necessary to make required changes.

People Thrive With a Sense of Purpose

Understanding a company’s corporate culture could reverse a troubled approach to a job. The risks associated with not learning the corporate culture involve not developing a critical sense of purpose. Bags in Bulk explains, “employees want to have a sense of purpose and a sense of belonging in their workplace. If the goal post keeps moving, or if you receive mixed messages about what the brand represents, then it’s a sign the company doesn’t know who they are and are probably the cause of your dissatisfaction.” Dueling responsibilities should be put in motion. A company would help its workers by better defining its mission, goals, and culture. Workers should take the added initiative to study each of these components and mere. Truly learn the culture and figure out how to better perform within it. From this, a previously elusive purpose might reveal itself.

Evaluate the Path of the Purpose

Mindful recommends, “finding a sense of purpose reflects one of the first steps to take. Figuring out a way to stay on the right path of purpose is another vital step.” An additional step, one people don’t always perform, involves evaluating whether the newfound sense of purpose indeed leads to satisfaction. Knowing one’s purpose isn’t enough. Maximizing a sense of purpose to achieve desirable outcomes should be a sought after goal.

Getting a sense of corporate culture can be the ticket to happiness in your professional life. As a happy employee, you’ll be more likely to remain with the company longer and work your way through the ranks, leading to overall higher job satisfaction.
