You’re not like most companies!

Similar to exit interviews, but instead of asking people why they’re leaving, you ask them why they stay & what might cause them to leave. Most companies ask these questions when it’s too late to know what you’re doing well, & what you could do better to keep your incredible people.

Stay Interviews are an essential tool for assessing your workplace culture and obtaining valuable employee feedback. At The Perk, we conduct stay interviews with a human approach, ensuring that employees feel seen, heard, and valued. This process fosters excitement, motivation, trust, and alignment within your team.

What is a Stay Interview?

A stay interview is a structured conversation between a manager and an employee, focusing on what keeps the employee working at the company and what might cause them to leave. Unlike exit interviews, stay interviews aim to identify and address issues before an employee decides to leave.
