A study of nearly 165,000 U.S. employees found that having a supportive manager, fair pay, good communication and opportunities for development have a stronger connection to job satisfaction than where employees work.

Remote work has stabilized at lower levels across Latin America and the Caribbean, with around 4% of job postings offering remote work in 2025.

The research also shows strong demand for flexibility, with seven in ten workers preferring remote or hybrid arrangements, while women report being willing to accept up to 10% less pay for fully remote roles.

New research using Danish employer-employee data suggests that AI adoption is already reshaping hiring patterns, particularly at smaller firms. Companies adopting AI fell behind their previous employment growth trends, with the biggest effects appearing in AI-exposed roles and among younger workers and new hires.

New workforce research highlights the importance of continuous training, clearer skills pathways and stronger onboarding, with hiring managers also recognizing that entry-level cybersecurity professionals can become productive within months when employers provide structured training and development opportunities.
