Starting a career has increasingly felt like a right of passage for Gen Z and Millennial workers struggling to adapt to the working week and stand out to their new bosses.
But it looks like those bosses aren’t doing much in return to help their young staffers adjust to corporate life, and it could be having major effects on their company’s output.
Research by the London School of Economics and Protiviti found that friction in the workplace was causing a worrying productivity chasm between bosses and their employees, and it was by far the worst for Gen Z and Millennial workers.
The survey of nearly 1,500 U.K. and U.S. office workers found that a quarter of employees self-reported low productivity in the workplace. More than a third of Gen Z employees reported low productivity, while 30% of Millennials described themselves as unproductive.
When a job is required to survive, it’s not a privilege.
It isn’t a right. If you need a job to survive, then perform better so you keep it. Simple. Don’t expect the employer to lower their standards just for your benefit. That is entitlement of the worst kind.
“No society is more than three meals away from a revolution”
A society that cant take care if it’s own people will collapse into bloody revolution
It isn’t the responsibility of any employer to keep you from being a revolutionary idiot. So go ahead if you want.
Oh for christ sake this baloney revolutionary crap…
Having productive workers isn’t a right. If your company needs productive workers to remain profitable, then pay your employees more so they’ll be motivated to work harder. Simple. Don’t expect workers to lower their standard of living just for your benefit. That is entitlement of the worst kind.
Usually the hard hat goes on at a construction site not on a skull on Lemmy. If you want more pay, go elsewhere, don’t expect an employer to cater to you entitlement.
