The State of the Global Workplace

A Glimpse Into The State of the Global Workplace in 2025

In 2024, global employee engagement fell sharply to 21%, a level not seen since the disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic.

This decline mirrored similar drops in overall life satisfaction and wellbeing among workers.

The most pronounced decline occurred among managers—a concerning trend, as their engagement and wellbeing play a critical role in shaping team morale and workplace climate.

The report explores the underlying factors behind these declines, such as shifting workplace expectations, burnout, evolving leadership challenges, and the lingering effects of hybrid work models.

It also highlights key trends shaping the future of work and offers recommendations for organizations looking to rebuild engagement and foster a healthier, more resilient workforce in 2025 and beyond.

It became very apparent early on that Braintrust could really help us grow our business. Their attention to detail, structured programs, project management, commitment to the partnership and execution of deliverables has been second to none. As a result, we progressed from what was initially a marketing consulting agreement to a fullblown partnership including NeuroMessaging, NeuroSelling, and NeuroCoaching for the second half of the year.
