WHAT MILLENNIALS WANT AT WORK (HINT: IT’S NOT ALWAYS MORE MONEY)
Are you struggling to find the formula to attract and retain millennials? If so, you’re not alone. Managers in every industry wonder how to nab high-performing employees and then keep them engaged, productive and satisfied once they’re on the job.
QUALITY OF LIFE MATTERS
The challenge is doubly confounding when would-be bosses realize they can’t always solve the problem with money. In fact, a bigger salary is not as important to most millennials as are a number of other factors.
“When it comes to looking for a new job, a majority of young adults say a better quality of life at work is more important than a fatter salary, according to a survey out this month from Fidelity. In fact, 25- to 35-year-olds said they’d be willing to give up an average of $7,600 in pay for a better situation at the office, such as more career development and a healthier work/life balance.” — Read more at USA TODAY.
“Two thirds of [millennial communication professionals] said job decisions were driven most by reputation (68.1%), culture (67.2%), and location (67.4%), among nine drivers. More than 60% said key retention drivers were culture (63.8%), work-life-social approaches (62.4%), and development opportunities (61.6%), among 14 factors.” — Read more at Bulldog Reporter.
