Sales employees care most about their jobs out of all workers in the office - here's how the rest of your coworkers rank

At least that's what a recent survey of more than 169,000 workers across the US from employee engagement software company Quantum Workplace indicates.

More than 80% of sales employees who participated in the survey were found to be engaged in their work, while about 66% of all workers surveyed were found to be engaged.

In this study, engaged employees are defined as having and expressing highly favorable views of their organization, pursuing extra effort at work, and planning to stay with the institution.

Survey participants answered questions designed to gauge their engagement like "Do you plan to leave in the next year?" and "Do you think your CEO has a good vision for the company?" Each respondent was then assigned a score out of six, and employees who scored a five or six were considered engaged, as opposed to contributing, disengaged, and hostile.
