    Agree with your points. In a 2021 survey of more than 29,000 Gen Z high school and college students, tech companies dominated the top 10 most desired workplaces, with Google, Apple and Netflix ranking first, second and third, respectively. Other tech companies on the list included Amazon, Microsoft, Sony, Tesla and SpaceX.

Although it is still the beginning of their era, Gen Zs have started creating a global scale noise which has brought all organisations to their toes.  I’ve been in the travel field for more than 12 years and the last couple of years have been the most challenging as it was important to accept and understand t...

How do we create a friendly environment for Gen Zs and meet their needs?

Image
W ith the rise of Gen Z workforce, the times have come for a new chapter in the books of HR functioning. All organisations possessed a steady process for recruiting, managing and for the retention of staff. the policies, rules and regulations were all set in stone. but the newly introduced generations no longer believe these to be employee-friendy processes/structures. due to the change in demands, some organizations have already begun looking at few of the following solutions to ensure that workplace provides a sane-free zone for Gen Z employees and to lower the current attrition rates.  Pay salaries well above the minimum wage : some companies even today tend to make a pay scale based on the number of years of experience or the seniority within the departments. However, considering the current situation it would be ideal to follow Adam's Equity Theory which encourages a pay structure based on their input rather than their designation or the seniority in the company. Gen Zs are ...
