Abstract Based on 83 independent empirical studies in 26 countries and regions (including 97 effect size and 46004 independent samples), this study conducted a meta-analytic examination on the relationship between employees’ WFC and their job satisfaction, job burnout and turnover intention in cross-cultural context. The results indicated that WFC had a negative effect on job attitudes as a whole. Specifically, WFC not only weakened employees’ job satisfaction, but also facilitated their job burnout and turnover intention. Moreover, WFC exerted a prominent triggering effect on job burnout and its effects on work attitude followed a gradually weakening logic of job burnout>turnover intention>job satisfaction. Last but not least, cultural factor played an important role in
WFC-job attitudes relation. In the cultural context of low power distance, individualism, masculinity, high uncertainty avoidance and self-restraint tendency, the negative impacted strengthened. And the phased quantitative summarization of diverse cultural samples provided the necessary inspiration for conducting management practices according to local conditions.
