There are plenty of millennials looking for work. If I could hire someone with work experience or something with no experience, the choice is obvious.

Additionally, I have heard complaints about gen z from millennials and older. Even in my very very small business, gen z workers have been very unreliable.

The work they do is to make things, they are paid for the things they make. They are paid well above the market rate. Like significantly higher, but they still disappear for a month or two at a time without warning and don’t respond to messages.

There is always a final exam or family emergency. I don’t mind if they take time off, but c’mon. How many finals exams can you have per year.

So due to their lack of communication I often need to find people to replace them. Millennial workers are hard working and produce high quality work. They often over communicate.

So this is my perspective on the issue.

I do have some very good gen z workers and some bad millennial workers, but that is the exception.
