IT Home reported on October 29 that, according to a report today by technology outlet TechRadar, the latest research report from Gallup shows that U.S. employee engagement has fallen to a record low. People working remotely or on a hybrid schedule are less enthusiastic about their work, while a lack of clarity about AI is also affecting employees’ job satisfaction.
Gallup said that in the third quarter of 2026, U.S. employee engagement stood at 29%, its lowest level since 2011. By comparison, the U.S. employee engagement figure was 36% in 2020 and fell to 31% in 2024.
IT Home noted that, compared with the previous quarter, engagement among fully remote employees fell by 5 percentage points, while engagement among hybrid employees fell by 2 percentage points. By contrast, engagement among on-site employees fell by just 1 percentage point.
Gallup had also previously found that, in jobs that allow remote work, fully remote and hybrid employees felt worse about their work expectations than on-site employees.
As for AI, Gallup said that research from earlier this year suggested employees’ attitudes toward AI and their engagement at work might be improving, but that trend has now reversed. The survey showed that employee engagement at companies that have integrated AI into their workflows was roughly the same as at companies that have not yet adopted AI. At the same time, remote employees again reported lower satisfaction and engagement at work.
