Lack of trust and empowerment, overworking employees and promoting the wrong people are also among the top bad behaviors of bosses.
Of all participants, a whopping 44 percent say the primary reason they left a job was because of a bad boss. And of the 44 percent, a boss's inappropriate behavior was the main factor that drove them out the door. Other management-related issues that push employees to leave are management style, a condescending attitude and a bad temper.
