Ever.
Just asking, do you know for certainty that has NEVER happend, at all? You make a very broad statement, and I have to believe it would be very difficult for you to know every suggestion or constructive criticism voiced in every single exit interview, ever.
The places I've worked, yes, I can say never. Obviously I don't know what happened over the entire company but people with whom I've kept in contact after I left an employer have never told me things got better in my area. And I know several people who were candid in their exit interviews and none of their suggestions were even acknowledged as having been considered, never mind implemented.
And don't get me started on "Labor-Management Participation Teams" that one employer implemented...
