Why do Millennials & Gen Z tend to jump from job to job? Well, for starters, companies like this one in this viral tiktok, can fire you over a 5 minute phone call, after you've given them 15 years of your life.

a hardworking employee who spent 15 years at a company was laid off in a 5-minute meeting career coach Monica Adele shared the story of this woman who was by all accounts a dedicated and ideal employee who went above and beyond for 15 years only to have it all go away in a five minute call and a week later that woman's position was reposted and filled with someone else Monica Adele says it's a common occurrence now for companies to let someone go and then replace them with someone making a lower salary and it's perfectly legal according to law friend Auburn McKenna and more it's a legitimate reason for termination if your company wants to hire someone who makes less money than you the days of a lifelong career at one company are long gone employees have caught on and while your parents may have stayed at one company for their entire career Millennials and gen Z are known for job hopping they would rather work on their own terms than settle and often that includes foregoing the job market alt together and working for themselves Monica Adel suggests putting taking care of yourself above your loyalty to a company because that's what a company would do
