More young people are saying the same thing: Salary and career growth are the most important things about a job. And it could explain why Gen Z workers are so much more unsatisfied with their jobs than their older colleagues.
Heard it for over a decade and haven't advanced an inch economically.
I'm technically GenZ (born in late 90's) and graduated university in 2021. I landed my first job in January 2022 and managed a grand total of 1 paycheck before the massive inflation happened when Europe decided to commit economic suicide. Felt REALLY good to finally join the workforce after being a struggling student and then immediaely getting it taken away from me, since inflation more or less eroded all the purchasing power I had gained by going from student to worker.
You're not Gen Z in my area... Gen Z for me is 2000-2020.... you're a late millenial to me....
Every other definition of Gen Z seems to be 1992-2015ish. But I will also add that every time one of the fossils in our department begins talking about Gen Z, I argue that since no one can come to any consistent definition of generations, just say "young people" if thats what you're using it to mean. In return, my boss seems to have expanded the definition to "anyone below 40".
That's stupid, first, I thought a generation consisted of a 20 years, now it's 15 years (Gen X seems to have started and ended on 1965-1980).... then 17 years?
Gosh, this is stupid....
It's not a fixed amount of time, I'm pretty sure it has to do with how society progresses/changes and big events that influence how people develop. If it was just a fixed period it would be basically useless, because of not being sensitive to what can bring differences to generations
Generations are vibe-based?
Yes, the idea of a named generation is an entirely modern concept.
