It's no real surprise that Gen Z — those born between 1997 and 2012 — has a different attitude towards employment than older generations; where workers once stuck with the same company for decades, younger employees are now quiet quitting, juggling side hustles and on the lookout for better opportunities.
A report by consulting firm Oliver Wyman has revealed Gen Z workers' relationships with their employers, and how they feel about the world of work compared to other generations.
Key Findings:
-
According to the survey, 62 percent of Gen Z-ers are actively or passively looking for new work while they're already employed. Sixty percent of millennial respondents — born between 1981 and 1996 — reported the same.
-
Just 30 percent of workers from the Boomer generation said they were looking for employment somewhere new.
-
As many as 45 percent of Gen Z respondents have either formal or informal side hustles, and 37 percent of them feel underpaid for the work they do.
