Is your AI strategy driving employees away?

One Glassdoor reviewer likened company monitoring systems to “AI Big Brother,” citing screen‑time tracking down to the minute. Another suggested that employees who did not embrace AI risked worse career prospects.

What can employers do?

Davis Neill said employers should update their compliance‑driven policies to include AI guidelines. They should also ensure that employees acknowledge them.

Key AI process information should also be shared as early as the onboarding period, while regular feedback channels should also be provided to allow organisations to address concerns proactively.

These measures can help reduce retention risks, according to Davis Neill, and will keep employees engaged amid AI adoption.

“Internal feedback mechanisms, especially anonymous ones, often provide a place for disengaged employees to communicate some of the frustration that can build up, especially when regular conversations are not happening with a direct leader,” she said.
