Millennials expect they'll need $1.3 million for a comfortable retirement but only 29% will reach that, while older workers say they'll need $1.1 million, though only 21% expect to reach it.

Creating clear career ladders is not only good for current and prospective employees.

About 34% of respondents say their career development has been stunted by a lack of mentorship, advocacy, and/or professional networking at their jobs.

Since more than half of employees said they haven't received financial advice for investing or retirement, resources like employee assistance programs and financial well-being programs have never been more important, says a new survey.
