[quote=The-Shoveler]OK, we will see how that works, I will try to remember to bring this link back up in 10 years,
The Millennials we have hired recently don’t seem to be complaining so far, they seem happy working (sometime 6-7 days a week during crunch time).
Anyway I don’t think the next 10-15 years will be all that much different than the last 20. We will see I guess.[/quote]
Shoveler, I’m not saying they should be complaining…not sure why but you seem to be equating flextime/working remotely = millenials = not working. Trust me, I have flexibility in my job, but as I said before when I have things to do I can be working for 14-18 hours a day if necessary. Listen, us Millenials are all about the bottom line, working hard and doing a job right. Only said that we are against being in front of the desk for no reason (face time) and a company that doesn’t promote based on meritocracy.
I saw this article on Wikipedia (I know not exactly irrefutable evidence)about Millenials and this is what I’m talking about
“Some employers are concerned that Millennials have too great expectations from the workplace.[37] Some studies predict they will switch jobs frequently, holding many more jobs than Gen Xers due to their great expectations.[38] Newer research shows that Millennials change jobs for the same reasons as other generations—namely, more money and a more innovative work environment. They look for versatility and flexibility in the workplace, and strive for a strong work–life balance in their jobs.[39] and have similar career aspirations to other generations, valuing financial security and a diverse workplace just as much as their older colleagues.[40] Educational sociologist Andy Furlong described Millennials as optimistic, engaged, and team players.[41]”
