Objective: This study assessed the prevalence and correlates of burnout (BO), professional fulfillment (PF), and intention to leave (ITL) among biomedical research faculty at an urban healthcare system. Methods: An anonymous survey was distributed to faculty in 2024, assessing demographics, workplace characteristics, culture, and stressors, leadership perceptions, and outcomes. Results: Among research faculty (n = 445; 43.3% response rate), BO was negatively associated with reporting a more supportive workplace culture and with higher psychological safety, and positively associated with stress from uncompensated service. Low PF was negatively associated with supportive workplace culture and psychological safety. Positive leadership perceptions, supportive culture, and senior faculty rank were associated with lower odds of ITL. Conclusion: The consistent association of workplace culture, leadership, and psychological safety with well-being outcomes underscores the importance of interventions targeting these factors.
