Gen Z doesn't trust their employers: 'I've come to terms with what adulthood is actually like.'

Employers demonstrated their infidelity to their staff by paying loyal workers, on average, 7% less than new hires — 20 years ago, salaries were largely the same between new and longtime employees.

    We deserve shares when we join. Give us a slice of the pie

      And yet businesses try to convince you that you’re part of the family and we’re all in this together. Work your ass off by coming in early and staying late all year? Good job here’s a 2% raise. Nevermind that is lower than inflation and the extra work and meager raise actually lowers your hourly equivalent if you’re salaried.

      If businesses really want everyone to go above and beyond they need to pay people in equity. Why else would anyone give a shit about the long term success of a business? They certainly have no loyalty to their employees.

      They do that if you go work in young industries. I think once the pie has been divided up and sold between rich guys 2000 times and there’s no more hyper growth, there’s no more pie to give out. So you have to move to models like bcorps, like a King Arthur Flour, or be evil.
