Watching millennials enter the workforce has been exciting and frustrating. Gone are the days of employer loyalty and “paying your dues.” In comes a generation that challenges the way we do things with how we could do things. You have heard the negative: job-hopping, a sense of entitlement, expectations for ping pong tables and food trucks and Ive had my share of millennial experiences that definitely fit the stereotypes.
But while I was skeptical of the tech-savvy, short-attention-spanned youth, theyre changing the workplace, and dare I say, its for the better. Millennials are expected to comprise nearly 50% of the workforce by 2020 (thats less than five years away) and there is a lot to look forward to.
