There are also various cultural phenomena that no one will remember as well as millennials do. Remember when watching a movie on Netflix meant being sent a DVD in the mail? Or watching a film on Friday night meant a trip to Blockbuster? If you’re not a millennial, you might not remember those days! Technology has progressed rapidly during their lifetimes already, and most of Gen Z has no memory of a world without smartphones and streaming platforms. While millennials may only be 26-41 years old at the moment, we can already predict some of the trends, memories and experiences that will become things of the past as this generation ages. Gen Z might be even more famous for being socially aware and active, but millennials certainly paved the way for their younger siblings. These snowflakes are actually concerned about the future of the planet and want to ensure that climate change doesn’t add actual snowflakes to the list of things that die out when their generation does.
For example, 90% of millennials say that working for a sustainable company is important to them, while only 77% of baby boomers feel the same way. There are some great qualities about millennials that tend to be swept under the rug as well. Plus, what some people call being “snowflakes”, others consider showing empathy for others and being sensitive to social issues. They have just realized that being treated poorly by employers should not be the norm, and having a healthy work-life balance shouldn't be merely a fantasy. And just because many of them don’t have the “pull yourself up by the bootstraps” mentality of their elders does not mean they are lazy or entitled.
