Biggest thing I’ve noticed with my millennial colleagues is that they see the job as a job and have very little loyalty to a ‘company’. If the wages and conditions are right, they’ll stay and work. If they’re shit, workers will leave and find something better.

The boomer (and GenX to an extent) mentality is still very much ‘find a job and stick it out’.

Until I started my current role (almost 7 years) my longest tenure before that was 3 years, over a 15 year career.

I would get asked in interviews about ‘job hopping’ and would simply say that I can handle a bad situation for so long. Mind you some of those were being made redundant, but older people couldn’t believe I would leave a job.
