Should I quit statistics: what people asking are really leaving
This page publishes once at least 30 people have completed the should I quit my job quiz in the current window. Until then the count is shown as below the reporting floor and no figures are published.
Once a cut reaches 30 completions, it shows which of the four readings people get most (Wrong Lens, Wrong Work, Wrong Deal, Wrong Boss), the mean score on each part of the job, and the same split for people who manage and for people leaving to start or run something. It never shows how many people would quit. The quiz does not ask, and stated intent moves too fast to be worth publishing.
Current edition
Fewer than 30 completions in this cut. Nothing is published below that floor. Next refresh: 2026-10-12.
Collection started on 2026-09-22. This page is rewritten when a refresh runs; the change log below carries every edition.
What this page will report
So that no cut is chosen after seeing the data, here is what is published when n reaches 30, and nothing else:
- Reading distribution
- Mean score per dimension, 0 to 100
- Reading distribution by role level
- Reading distribution by leaving
- Region
The floor rule
No cut is published with fewer than 30 completions. Where a cut falls below the floor, the chapter is published with the count and no figures. The floor is set before the edition and never lowered. Completions are counted, not people: the capture is anonymous and cookieless, so a returning visitor is not identifiable and is not de-duplicated. Ad blockers drop some events, so every count is a floor. The full rules are on the methodology page.
What this page will never publish
- Any would quit percentage or any figure about intent to leave. The quiz does not collect it.
- Any cut that names or could identify an employer.
- Any free text. None is collected.
- Any cut below 30 completions, or any cut that still contains the site's own test runs.
How to read it against other surveys
One published number frames this one. Gallup found that 42 percent of people who left a job voluntarily said the exit was preventable, and 45 percent had no conversation with their manager about their future, satisfaction or role in the three months before they left (Fortune on Gallup). This page reads against it from the other side: it shows how many people asking the question are driven by parts of the job a conversation could change, the boss and the deal, against the parts it usually cannot, the work and the mirror.
How to cite this page
Leaders ADAPT, Should I quit statistics: what people asking are really leaving, Workplace Reality Index, edition 2026-09-23, https://www.leadersadapt.com/should-i-quit-statistics/. Until a cut passes the floor there is no figure to cite; cite the method instead. Every published figure will carry its n, its window and its date on the same line.

Every completed run lands on one of these pages, with your own scores drawn from the link the tool gives you. Each one is readable without taking the tool.
- Wrong LensSome of the friction may be coming with you. Test that first.
- Wrong WorkThe work no longer fits. A new boss would not fix it.
- Wrong DealThe exchange feels unfair. Ask plainly before you decide.
- Wrong BossThe work fits. The relationship with your manager does not.
