Employee experience is vital to a healthy and growing company. A poor employee experience leads to disgruntled or apathetic employees who suck the energy out a business. On the other hand, an exceptional employee experience leads to employees who pass on their enthusiasm to customers. In fact, customers are more likely to have a positive customer experience if they are served by passionate employees.
