Gen Z has become a bunch of ghosters, and we’re not talking about when it comes to dating. At least that’s what invoice-factoring service Gateway Commercial Finance found after chatting with over 1,000 employed Americans. They were evenly split between Gen Z workers and hiring managers.
According to the survey:
- 60% of Gen Z workers called their job a “situationship”
- 47% plan to leave within the year
- 1 in 4 are ready to quit without notice
- 30% have already walked out without a warning, two-week notice, or a goodbye email
They also found that Gen Z workers spend an average of just 1.8 years at a job. “What we’re seeing with Gen Z is a fundamental shift in what younger workers view as non-negotiables: mental wellbeing, identity alignment and autonomy,” workplace mental health expert, Christina Muller, said. “Unlike previous generations, they’re not willing to stay in jobs that compromise those values even if it means instability.”
