Alli Peck (speaker) describes a generational shift in job tenure: Boomers historically stayed at jobs for decades, Gen X shorter, Millennials shorter still, and Gen Z is characterized as a "job-hopping" generation that typically stays one to two years. Peck notes employers dislike this trend because hiring and training are costly; she also mentions employees may leave after vesting some stock or becoming fully onboarded.
Let's talk about a generational shift that is happening from Boomer to Gen Z right now. With regard to what I just read, the Boomer generation on average stayed at their jobs for decades. Then we had Gen X who stayed a little bit shorter, Millennials who stayed even shorter, and now Gen Z who is considered the job hopping generation. They stay for a year or two, just enough to get trained on board, maybe some of your stock vests and you feel like you got a good grip on the company and then they le. I think employers do not like that. It's a huge waste of money. Hiring is expensive and training is expensive.
