Gen Z wants to be paid what they feel they are worth, rather than what the market in their chosen field is willing to pay. Younger employees have also started to shake up company culture with more casual attire and communication styles, and more frankness about mental health and employer accountability. Watching their parents deal with financial crises caused by the Great Recession also has made them more pragmatic.
