Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 4553084, member: 628"] It depends. I'm fortunate to work for a high-profile company that attracts excellent entry-level employees. The young adults I work with that are just out of college totally blow my mind. They are FARRRR more polished, ambitious, mature and worldly than my peers who entered the work force 25 years ago. Do they also have a bit more entitlement? Sure. But in many respects that's not always bad. They demand appropriate pay (want to talk about criminal, I'll offer you the $18,500 annual salary I got in my first job in 1995. Try to live on that in NYC.). They demand more development and training opportunities, because they care about advancing their career. And they know that a corporation isn't loyal to them (they'll be first out the door in many layoff situations), so why be loyal to the corporation. I know it's fashionable to bash "kids these days". I just find it to be weaksauce. Your mileage may vary, as they say. [/QUOTE]
