Gen Z prioritize work-life balance
Gen Z prefers flexibility and reliance on digitalism
Social media influences the jobs there are out there such as influencer, freelancing, dropshipping etc. other than traditional professions.
Gen Z has seen what work and economy does to people, loan, mortgage and feeling like you're in a hamster wheel. They don't want the 9-5 life.
Gen Z has new criteria for work and employers may not find that attractive. But it is a sign that times are changing.
Interesting viewpoints. To me, it seems like the most noteworthy thing to address is that "they don't want the 9-5 life." I don't think anybody does to be honest with you. Technology has certainly made it easier to apply for jobs, communicate with people, and give you the flexibility to work from home in your pajamas.
Baby boomers are quick to paint you guys in a negative corner with this ideological narrative that you must be a slave android working the 9-5 hustle.
