My New Employee Just Quit, What Happened?

In 2007, an article from MSN suggested that the average employee that has just started a job would quit within a few weeks of being hired. In today's job market, getting a job has become increasingly harder to achieve. With our job markets under strain from the economy, gas prices, politics, and job cuts due to an increasing overhead doing business, many companies either can't afford to hire more employees, or worse, they've been downsizing to even exist. The Idea of getting a well established, good paying job is recently being compared to finding buried treasure; you have to be there at the right time and have the qualifications to be lucky enough to find a job such as described. So why are so many employees walking away from their current new jobs? Although pay is a main factor, a lot of employers make a few simple mistakes that are commonly not even thought of in the mix. Here is a list of the ten worse mistakes I have encountered working. This is a list of factors gathered through 100 jobs, and the reason why I had to leave, not want to leave. If you are an employee, this list should be as vital to you as your paycheck, because this will affect your paycheck, (as well as your achievements hiring people). If you are a person looking for a job, this list is your prerequisite on what to look for as soon as you get a job, and how to avoid such matters.

Although this list is of the top five, this only describes the most common. Your story might be a little different, but so you can relate to each error, you will see a true story of how I personally encountered each scenario and why that great job I just landed didn't last long, pay or not.
