Somewhat surprised by how candid the responses are - to have multiple of your survey subjects say they are seriously considering quitting! I enjoy that there's an entire blocker for "Teams isn't working".
Personally my worst days are "I did a thing, rolled it out, found it was seriously broken, rolled it back, and now it's 6pm and that is what I did today". I couldn't see anything in their report that would cover that failure mode (it's worse than "couldn't get anything done", because I was demonstrably incompetent at what I did do).

"demonstrably incompetent" and "demonstrably unsuccessful" are two different things. You can be the latter at a task without necessarily being the former.
Well for us this could be internal job boards. When companies have 10k+ engineers our internal job boards are huge with people switching teams all the time.
