High Salaries, Internal Promotions, and Benefits Are Among the Reasons That Make Eight in Ten Workers Turn Down New Opportunities
Currently, the financial market faces a challenging reality, similar to the situation in the Information Technology (IT) sector. This situation is marked by a shortage of skilled labor, resulting in various leadership positions being open. Although high salaries and attractive benefits are common in this sector, such as executive positions that can offer compensation of up to R$ 96 thousand per month, high retention of professionals is making it difficult to fill these vacancies.
High Retention and Job Satisfaction Are Reasons for the Labor Shortage
A recent study by the PageGroup consultancy revealed that, surprisingly, eight in ten finance professionals do not plan to change jobs. The reasons that explain this labor shortage include, primarily, job stability. Many professionals are satisfied with their current conditions. Additionally, counteroffers and internal promotions have also proven effective in talent retention.
Despite this significant retention, the demand for qualified financial leaders remains high, especially in times of economic uncertainty, where a strategic vision becomes crucial for decision-making.

Growth in Demand for Financial Leaders
According to Michael Page’s 2024 Compensation Study, companies are looking for professionals who combine technical knowledge with leadership skills. Therefore, these leaders must not only have a deep understanding of numbers but also be able to translate them into effective strategies for business growth. The research clearly indicates that financial leadership increasingly needs to integrate financial knowledge with business strategies.
Challenges to Attract New Talents
However, despite competitive salaries and benefits offered, the financial sector still faces a labor shortage and significant challenges to attract new talents, even though salaries are attractive. One reason for this is that professionals who are already satisfied in their positions tend to stay where they are. Thus, internal competition, with promotions and transfers, makes it difficult for talent movement between companies.
Consequently, companies continue to struggle to overcome the labor shortage to fill strategic positions with attractive salaries. An example of this can be observed in the number of vacancies available in finance, where there are more than 1,600 job opportunities open on LinkedIn. This talent shortage leads to increasing competitiveness, resulting in a “bubble” where professionals are constantly valued and remain in their positions longer.

Boa noite a todos!
Eu me formei em Sistemas P/ Internet em uma faculdade aqui em Salvador e não consegui trabalho. Fui em uma entrevista de emprego em uma empresa da área TI, mais a empresa não quis pegar estagiário não, eles querem a pessoa sabendo 10 tecnologias pra conquistar a vaga e ainda: ganhar pouco. Se a empresa quer contratar e acabar com a falta de de funcionários tem que contratar estagiários..
Tiago..
Você pode fazer estágio online, mesmo com salário baixo para pegar experiência e continuar estudando, fazer o que gosta é o primeiro passo o resto vai acontecer naturalmente.
Não vale apena receber alto salário se 99,99% vai ser devolvido ao governo em imposto 😭 imposto pelo alto salário. Imposto por gasta o salário. Imposto por bem adquirido. E risco de confiscar dinheiro na poupança ou investido em fundos ou bolsa de valores em decadência. Não dá vontade de ser rico. Pagamos iptu pra morar onde nem tem rua asfaltada ou com luz e saneamento.😭😭😭😭
Que pensamento de escassez é esse? Você pode ganhar muito bem investir em outro país, ou na sua própria empresa e ser feliz 😀
