“The most fascinating statistic that I saw on this is career cushioning, and the fact that of all the countries we surveyed, the highest was Malaysia. I'll admit this term is new to me,” said Kevin Fitzgerald, Managing Director of Employment Hero Asia.

Employment has to be seen as a relationship, with trust, with transparency“The most fascinating statistic that I saw on this is career cushioning, and the fact that of all the countries we surveyed, the highest was Malaysia. I'll admit this term is new to me,” said Kevin Fitzgerald, the newly appointed Managing Director of Employment Hero Asia, speaking during the unveiling of the Malaysian specific data from Employment Hero’s 2023 Talent Insights Report yesterday.

From the Malaysian respondents of the Employment Hero survey, the main motivators for this career cushioning are, poor company culture , dislike for their boss , and lack of appreciation . “If I want to learn Bahasa Indonesia online, I can go on and take a lesson for like US$10 or free. I couldn’t do that 10 years ago and I think Malaysians are seeing that opportunity, ” Kevin, who has an Indonesian spouse, explains.

This is especially the case when it comes to Gen Z, who are just getting into a workspace, where fresh-grad salaries in Malaysia have remained the same for the past 14 years while the cost of living has increased. Another standout issue among Malaysians surveyed is around internal mobility which was not a key issue in 2021 where 35% of employees said they were looking internally for their next move.
