Recession left “walking wounded” workers

Many workers around the world have given up hopes of advancing in their jobs, but the bad economy is keeping them from finding new ones.
Such “walking wounded” workers are increasingly exchanging ambition for job stability, which now even trumps pay as a consideration, according to a biennial survey by the human resources consultancy Towers Watson Co.
People are becoming “nesters,” who prefer to stay in one career or with one employer for their entire career.
