DOnt say anything that will burn bridges but if your not honest what is the point of the exit interview other than a formality. some companies may just do it to make it seem like they care about employees and the work environment but if they are takingthe time to do so i would imagine they want honest feedback.
They should already know what the issues are without an exit interview.
Not for human resources who are the ones that normally conduct the interviews. Or in retail where a department or store management are not known to the upper management. Or in the corporate world where each department is so compartmentalized. In theory exit interviews are excellent tools to keep other employees if their are serious issues.. But in reality they justify the issues and blame the leaving employee or just don't care. Next!

I said "should'. It isn't the employee's problem if they don't.
Might have legal or liability reasons or something.
I'd ask my HR person here but they're bigger truth evaders (liars) than those exiting the company.
The data collected might mean something if the particular company is having an issue with employee retention. In that case, they might like to know why they can't keep employees.
There is no point in being honest, as, quite frankly, orgs do not use the information gathered to improve. They are "feel good" exercises no more meaningful than a mission statement.

Never gripe. Don't say anything bad about another person.
