We find that employee satisfaction is substantially lower in financially constrained firms. Decomposing employee ratings, we find that firm financial constraints are associated with employees’ concerns regarding work-life balance, senior leadership, and career progression. Our study implies that employee satisfaction could be an important channel through which financial constraints reduce firm value.
