as posted by the channel

Tens of millions of Americans changed jobs over the past two years, a rare moment of worker power as employees demanded higher pay, and as employers, short on staff, often gave it to them.

The tidal wave of quitting became known as the “great resignation.” Now, as the phenomenon seems to have fizzled out, the Times economic writer Ben Casselman discusses whether there have been any lasting benefits for American workers.

GuestBen Casselman () , an economy correspondent for The New York Times.

• Last year, the Times opinion writer Paul Krugman questioned the great resignation () narrative.
