My company blames my generation for not being able to hire everyday. “You guys don’t want to work” coming from some overweight, racist, old coaster. I’ve barely taken any days off this year and pick up “skeleton crew” days any chance I get. I was able to work out a deal with my company before I came because of prior experience luckily, but they offer a terrible base salary and sham of a commission structure to new hires + no remote. Then sit here and can’t figure out why…

I often have to explain to older generations that our generation has resources to know (before they start a job), what they should be paid and what the work experience will be like. You can’t say ppl don’t want to work when the reality is you aren’t willing to compensate them accordingly for their work.

Completely agree. They aren’t willing to offer what other companies offer, and that’s fine, to each their own. But when some companies get thousands of applications a month and your company gets 0. There is clearly something people are looking for, and your reluctancy to change is holding your company as a whole down. Another 15 years max and we won’t even have to worry about this when they’re all out of the work force. Sadly many of their companies will fail if they don’t adapt. My company is finally considering Salesforce and it’s feels like Xmas 🤣 we’re toast
