I'm 25. The manager at my old job hired me on and said I'd get a raise after 6 months if I worked hard. Well I did the job, communicated with the company, and was given high regards. 6 months come and no review. Kept getting told "soon." 3 months later I finally get into the review and they say I'll get a 6% raise. Flash forward another month, and I only got 2%. I asked HR what's up and they said that they don't give that high of a raise. The funny thing is that this guy always talked about how younger people don't like to work and that they want everything, yet this is how he treats his employees. No respect. So I left them to move somewhere closer to my girlfriend, got a 10% raise, and actually like the work. And while my experience isn't true in every case, I think a lot of other people around my age have experienced the same treatment. I didn't spend 4 years in school, staying up late studying, doing internships, and working, doing national guard drills, and the like just to be disrespected by some middle manager.

That really stinks and I'm sorry you were treated that way. Our generation got treated that way a lot of times too. You just find an employer who's reasonable - and sometimes you have to search until you find them and kiss some frogs. I don't think our generation is saying work in unreasonable conditions, and clearly you're a hard worker and probably showed it but there are those who whine and complain that they have to do jobs and work with people who are difficult, they don't like, etc. when this is reality - every job you'll ever have will have certain aspects that are unpleasant. Those are the types we're talking about.

Work life balance is not the problem with this generation. It’s how they go about it. I’ve seen it in real time, they believe work. Life balance is essentially avoiding accountability and avoiding responsibility to promote their own personal health. And I understand why they’re doing that at these times, but at the same time you were hired for a job and you have to complete that job in a timely manner.

Think about what you just said. The older generations worked, funded 401k's, build up the SS surplus that is rapidly being diminished. They have options in their old age even if less than they were promised. If all the young people quit, they will have no savings, no retirement, no earnings to base SS on (no matter who pays it). The older generations are facing an uncertain retirement after decades of working and saving. The young people that aren't working and saving are just guarantying themselves a life of poverty, especially in retirement.

I was a hiring manager for my old job. The workers who had been there for 5+ years wanted raises (they had not gotten one in 3 years) so instead of giving them $1 extra my boss started hiring college students and fired people who were loyal for nonsense. The college students/graduates refused to stay later at the last minute, work holidays, refused late shifts, would write company wide emails if they were spoken to in a harsh tone. They wanted respect while the older workers just wanted stability. The college students didn’t even want to work at the speed the older people were so after one year of training new people who would only stay about a month we lost all our good workers. The business had to lay people off and my boss rants on the internet no one wants to work anymore. So glad I left. Businesses use to brag about hiring younger folks and now they are crying about it. Ooh well. 😂

He is the ONLY person at that hub certified in all vehicles. My son is the most experienced and reliable person they have to move the over-the-road trailers to and from the doors to be unloaded. This busy season he has been working 7 days a week because he is the only one who can do it. He is paid the same hourly wage as the package handlers with no training or certifications despite the fact that he has a much more risk, responsibility and expectations. It's insane. He wants to get his CDL, which the company will pay for and will come with a pay raise, but working 7 days a week he hasn't had the opportunity.

This study needs a contrast to how employers treat employees and they often have unrealistic work goals for their employees and expect them to work insane hours as a form of loyalty to the company. Someone’s corporate company that isn’t owned by the employees is going to be treated as such. Employees need to be stakeholders period and Gen Z is changing who they work for and the reasons why. They want their work to be meaningful and positive, not to just suck the life out of them which is what they watched their parents do.

As someone who has hired and managed Gen Z's, as well as other generations, in the workplace, the biggest thing I saw was lack of initiative. They were hard workers when told what to do, but they have to be told EVERYTHING, ALL THE TIME. When they finish one task, they will stop and wait until told to start the next task. If they have no task in front of them, they won't seek out a task but just wait to be told. Then they expect excessive praise after each step and if they make a mistake, they crumble under any criticism. They are intelligent; they are focused; they are willing to work hard. They just take an excessive amount of hand holding.

Then I quit and got a better job. I graduated from college and started all over again. It's a process and most people don't want to do it.

There's really nothing new here. I've worked for multiple companies over 40 years. Seen tons of this. Some feel they have to try too hard to fit in. Some are working mothers, a lot single who have issues with their kids or ex-husbands.. Some are so preoccupied with their debts they can't focus. Some see the workplace as a place to socialize. etc. College simply does teach real world scenarios. You don't learn these from a book. This was why I left college after two years even though I was demonized for it back then. If my generation had social media back then, we would have had our own stories.

Too many people think that they're learning life by being in the workplace, but all the workplace has shown me was how people are petty, vindictive, jealous and more. You can learn that in high school. I'd be danged if I gave up my college career just to work at some lousy company where everyone is complaining like they were on the jobs I've had. I'd rather get out here and achieve my dreams.

My daughter’s a senior in high school. Last summer she got a job as a waitress at a small restaurant. Within a month she was sent to the owners upscale restaurant. A month later she was their head waitress. She was even supervising teachers at her school who worked there. As summer was ending the boss asked what she was studying in college. He was shocked to find out she was still in high school. She continues to work and go to school. I think there is plenty of hard working kids. Mine all started working at 15. They all bought their own first car. The oldest has moved out and pays her own bills. Parents seem to think their kids are their best friends. Nop. Your job is to prepare them for their future. Life is hard. You can’t raise soft kids. For example in 5th grade the basketball coach was doing my daughter wrong. I didn’t yell at the coach. I didn’t call the school. I told my daughter to figure it out. She talked to the coach on her own and worked everything out. I could have handled it, but what would that teach her? As parents we don’t want the kids to go through hard times and we protect them. But they need these hard times to develop.

Exactly! My parents taught us the skills needed to be successful in the workplace. They taught us to respectful and courteous to everyone - from the CEO to the custodian. You look people in their eyes when speaking and you keep your word. If you say you’re going to do something, do it! My dad taught me to learn every position I can so it increases job security. I worked extremely hard in my 20s while being a full time student for additional degrees. Now I’m in my mid thirties and I can take off when I need to establish my work-life balance. My manager actually said I didn’t take enough time off this year and I need to do better about that next year lol. Most of the time, if you’re doing your work and turning it in on time, your boss will likely leave you alone and check in as needed. But we have to work up to that. We don’t just get it on day one.

So I understand what she means when she says “they ask a lot of questions”. Younger people require a lot of reassurance that they are doing a good job. There’s no more grades that they can look at to check their progress. 5O people aren’t working on the same assignment so they can’t compare their work. Many times there aren’t any examples to shape their expectations. This is how they have be taught, and older generations expect you to “understand the assignment” and produce the best work possible without too much hand holding which is how they were raised. This is what you get when parents want to blame teacher for their children’s grades. The teachers overcompensate by planing for EVERYTHING and the students only learn to plug and play.

We didn’t necessarily know any better than the young today, but we jumped in there and did it anyway because that was expected. Now….it is expected that young people be coddled and hand held and everything explained in the upmost detail….and yet the work world has never operated that way from what I have seen. On a side note, I have two graduate degrees and appreciate and value education….but none of that really prepares you for the work world. It’s taking that knowledge and getting out there and trying to figure out what to do with it is what matters.

Grown adults can make fun of them however where were the adults that were ensuring their education? If you've indoctrinated them for over 16 yrs then throw them to the wolves then what do you expect? On the other hand, companies need to adapt & improve processes & procedures for the future of the world Regarding the universities, they claim to research & partner with companies to find out what students need to learn, so why/how is this not being fulfilled to prepare students? In terms of internships, the university I graduated from now requires students to have at least a 1 week internship 😂 what are you really going to learn in a week?

PSA to gen Z - You are being hired to do a JOB and you will be PAID for doing it. Its not your employers responsibility to give your life “inner fulfillment” that’s a personal thing. You have to figure that out on your own time. Also, don’t accept a job, then expect your employer to bend the companies policies so that you feel like you have “enough” off time and can come into work late or call out every other week. Go seek work elsewhere OR start your own business. But these are existing companies you are walking into, therefore, you need to learn something called adaptation. Period.

They've been using smartphones and tablets and only certain apps or programs at school but you ask them to do something as simple as create a word document and they are lost. They also have never been forced to sit and listen to their parents make a professional phone call because they do it in another room. The amount of information you learn just by watching your parents do something is huge. But everyone now relies on technology to give some sort of satire version of what something should look like.

If you hire a 20 something grad who is a minority and the company is 80% white and the new hire doesn't like that, what do you do? Fire some white people and hire some minorities (or more of that persons race) to make them feel better!? It's a completely unrealistic expectation. You see the problem don't you?

Today I sat through our salaried managers deciding which hourly people to cut to save on labor. All of us are barely getting 30 hours a week and it’s slow due to the holidays so it’s even worse. They suggested if nobody volunteered to go home that we should play rock paper scissors or draw sticks to see who goes home with less pay that day. Meanwhile, they’re collecting the 60k salaries and getting a bonus that is dependent on cutting our hours. Most of us work two jobs just to get by. It’s insulting to work for people who don’t respect MY bottom line.

I blame old people. We live in the Information Age. We have technology that could make things so much quicker. Instead we have to abide by the processes of an outdated time. If your job still has you using paper and fax machines when it very well could be summed up in an email or a phone call then you’re part of the problem. I have a lot of younger colleagues and the things they can do with computers blows my mind and I’m excited to have them use those tools to make everyone’s job much easier

I am a 21 year old college student, and I got an on-campus job at a disability office. Ironically, I have autism. I have never used it as a crutch and have always gave my all at any job I’m working. I told my boss this, and stated that I learn a bit differently than others, but I work best with routines, and clear expectations. I take down notes during training, try and learn the computer system at home, etc. Please note, I am never on my phone, I complete my assignments whenever I’m told, as well as friendly with the other workers. I was trying my best. At a 2 week review, they tell me to rate myself. I give myself an average rating. My boss pulls me aside and says I am below-average, because I ask colleagues too many questions. I am devastated. She tells me she is gonna give me more assignments, (even though the assignments I already have take up the majority of my shift). I say okay. I think that I need to work harder. Over the next week, I overhear my boss telling colleagues that I’m slow and incompetent. That I’m one of the worst student workers she’s ever seen. I quit the next day over email. I wasn’t going to bend over backwards to a bully. Best part? It paid only $9/hr.

The problem with this is most teenagers do apply for jobs; however, employers are looking for someone who is at least 18 because of their insurance policies, and someone who is finished with their education has the time to devote to that source of employment instead of still completing their classes. And AI is now how candidates get selected for a job and you need experience to add to a resume, so it’s a catch 22 and unless they have spent hours volunteering or working for family or neighbors it is very difficult for a teenager to get a job in this current economy.

I’ve seen two sides of this, both working with highly motivated and productive Gen-Z members and with totally entitled, lazy, and disrespectful members. When someone is hired for a new job and calls out in the first week because they want to go on a date, wanted to hang with friends, or just didn’t feel like working, it hardly presents them as team members. These people also just stop showing up to their job, without turning in any notice when it suits them. Businesses need reliable people who show up and do their jobs, yet you can see people who are staring at their phones the entire time. How can you get work done if you are fixated on your phone? Those who are motivated can be and are highly productive.

When you're younger, you don't understand why things are done the way their done, so you think it's outdated. But it's in the perseverance, and digging deep to get something accomplished is what creates a better understanding of themselves. To push THEIR boundaries and question THEIR abilities, it's what makes them better than they were when they started. Asking questions is fine, but when they don't integrate the information, questions are just ways to grind someone down and make them give in.

I was born in 1996 and graduated college in December 2022. I've had my job working part time as a dishwasher for 6½ years now, but still haven't had anything that uses my degree. I was recently thinking about it and am thinking about just holding off stressing about getting a new job and just taking some time to figure out what I'm passionate about. My degree is in mathematics which is very broad, so without any specific ideas in mind, it's hard to move forward. But overall, my living situation is pretty stable right now, so I don't need to rush. I'm almost 29, so I have a whole life ahead of me.

I think that the TV anchors had it right at the end. If a person's first job is higher-level, higher-paying, after graduation, that job comes with greater expectations. Whereas a low-level, perhaps part-time job comes with the expectation that the employee will have questions and need training. If you apply for a higher-level job that pays better, don't expect much guidance. Understand that you will be expected to perform, alone, on day-1.
