The Job Satisfaction in Hasbro Company4.1 Hasbro’s mission is to manufacture games and other tools in USA instead of shipping it from South China. The job satisfaction in the company will depend on how the mission statements of the company will help the employers in achieving their profit levels and also their personal enhancement. At Hasbro, there are two sets of people working on designing the games. One who focuses on the traditional methods and are happy with their routine jobs. The other set are the innovators who develop new strategies to the existing games in order to make it more appealing.
Thus, the satisfaction level depends on the type of job the person is engaged in. 4.2 People like Peaches Belanger are the company loyalists who are happy with their exiting pattern of routine j obs. They take pride in owing a job and develop a sense of belonging with their company. The company can increase their pay scales, provide them with additional perks and benefit and acknowledge their work in the company to increase their job satisfaction level.4.3 Rob Daviau’s job satisfaction level is more than that of Peaches Belanger though the latter’s is more dedicated towards the company.
This can be explained using Locke’s Value Discrepancy Theory. This theory explains that satisfaction in a job results from the satisfaction of the desires than from the deprived needs (Singh, p.259). Daviau’s sought to introduce changes in the existing standard of the games that were manufactured in the company. He was satisfied with the fact that there were very few game planners like him in the entire country. This personal feeling helps in boosting the job satisfaction in a person and his overall performance.
