The Update on Associate Attrition (Calendar Year 2021) report covers overall associate attrition and hiring during this turbulent year, with detailed analyses of departure destinations (other firms/in-house, or other), factors driving associates' departures, and whether the departures were wanted or not from firms' perspectives, as well as comparisons of data by entry and lateral status, race and gender, firm size, and other key metrics. New information includes:
- Departure date tracking to probe 2021’s salary wars, special bonuses, and reopenings.
- Specific queries about DEI, support for mental health/well-being, community/connectivity, remote/flexible work, and vaccination/testing policies as factors influencing associate departures.
- Rehires information, to capture “boomerang” associate data.
