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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.

Most of the 25 and under are willing to listen and learn and then their are the one's who just don't want to give an inch and make outlandish demands. I try to set an example but the choice is ultimately their choice. My biggest struggle was if something was wrong, come communicate and let's find common ground and solutions.

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. Ultimately, most knowledge is learned on the job (healthcare professional, now business owner and that has been my experience).

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?

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. Problem is that they aren't learning what to actually do.

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.

Teenagers are being replaced by illegals….no one at Wendy’s or chipotle speaks English where I live. Why hire a teenager for $15 an hour, which probably isn’t bad for a teenager spending money since they still live at home, when you can hire an illegal who will work long hours and not complain.

For me, it's the entitlement. I've never met a more entitled group of people and have had to ax a few of them. Bad attitudes, not willing to learn structure of the company, oh and caught one using AI. I'll fire you on the spot for that.

For generations that feel like value and work ethic is in simply occupying a chair every day for 10 hours, these young people will eventually run laps around boomer productivity.

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.

Always complaining about young people not wanting to work, yet we do work. We just make enough money.

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.

As a gen z, we might need to be realistic on our expectations of a job, but in terms of the way we speak differs from person to person. Obviously, the people in the video may not have English as their first language.
@chiplangowski32985 күн бұрын
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.

lack of ethic and lack of professionalism is the WORST with that age group. i have a cell phone video from the last place i worked, 6 employees on, 5 working, one scrolling. that one scrolling did that all day and got paid. it brings down the morale of others and its demeaning as heck to see managers scared to tell them to get to work cause then they cry. its pathetic honestly.

It sounded to me like the companies nailed it. And the lady from the college that stated she just hasn't seen that in their students.. right after her students spoke and thus clearly showing that the companies were correct.
