This anonymized data set comes from data collected in a field-experimental design with pretest and follow-up measurements among a sample of 72 employees working in ten teams in an international engineering, design, and advisory company in Northern Europe (i.e., the experimental group). In addition, 133 employees working in 30 teams from the same company participated at follow-up and served as the control group. All participants worked as consultants within the fields of infrastructure, industry, and energy. Team members in the experimental condition were invited to complete a web-based survey at Time 1, which was at the end of September (about 1 week before the intervention), and at Time 2, which was in January (a couple of weeks after the intervention was completed). In addition, participants in the control condition were invited to complete the same web-based survey at Time 2 in January. Participation was voluntary, and respondents were assured of the confidentiality of their responses. The participants filled out a questionnaire measuring <i>perceived autonomy support</i>, 12 items (6 measuring support from their manager and 6 measuring support from their coworkers), <i>motivation at work</i>, 19 items (6 items measuring extrinsic motivation, 4 introjected regulation, 3 identified regulation, 3 intrinsic motivation, 3 amotivation), <i>basic psychological need satisfaction and need frustration in the work domain</i>, 24 items of which twelve assess basic psychological need satisfaction of autonomy (4 items), relatedness (4 items), competence (4 items), and twelve assess need frustration of the need for autonomy (4 items), competence (4 items), relatedness (4 items), <i>work engagement</i>, which has nine items, and finally <i>job burnout</i>, 11 items, and <i>demographics</i>.<br>
