A reasonable hypothesis can be drawn that Gen Z job aspirants have formed a relatively unique philosophy in terms of positioning themselves in today’s work culture. An influx of individuals can be observed gracing themselves in the realm of entrepreneurship rather than seeking employment, as more and more university graduates and job applicants are steadily shifting towards incubating themselves in the “self-employed” bracket. Fueled by modern interpretations on hedonistic egoism and an increasing distaste towards capitalist alienation, a notable proportion of the Gen Z populace believe that “doing what makes you happy” must the sole philosophy in terms of discovering or articulating one’s purpose, translating it towards seeking long-term financial independence and social stature. However, that is not to say that such a notion can only be achieved by building your own company. Finding a job in line with your passions and skills still remain a classical and intuitive reason for people, especially Gen Z, to pursue higher education to integrate themselves in their respective job market, often taking multiple jobs to survive in current economical standards. In developed countries, improved social conditions, increased educational awareness and competitive wages have dutifully motivated the upcoming generation of job applicants to heed their responsibilities and efforts in curating a long-term career with promotional opportunities and professional network building. All of these in tandem with a person’s ability to link their interest to employment may present themselves to be a recipe for success and happiness within the traditional work culture hemisphere. Another perspective is the recent COVID-19 pandemic dramatically entertaining the notion of a remote work culture. Many companies hit by the drastic economic repercussions of the pandemic were forced to not only layoff a large proportion of their workforce but integrate quickly with remote interfaces to prevent any further deviation from quarterly or yearly goals. While rehabilitating themselves back to onsite work, a new notion of remote work and decreased work hours have been entertained since. Some of the Gen Z population can be seen promoting this as it claims to establish a flexible work culture for employees to work productively in. With no compromise towards skillset and qualifications, companies while hesitant, are still unsure of how it may affect the productivity and rate of development of departments which may need to work onsite, such as sales, marketing, teaching etc. Other industries such as software engineering and freelancing have very much found their home in the remote hemisphere, with fewer expenditures from companies. This brings the idea of how Gen Z may be looking forward to reap the benefits of avoiding onsite work hours while expecting the same wages. Lower productivity and longevity become the first things to be compromised for any workforce not active in onsite traditions. While statistically, the demographic consisting of emigrant minorities and middle-class backgrounds affluent in their tradition and motivation of overachieving academically and seeking better job opportunities still continue to stratify the job market in terms of promoting traditional work culture, showing little to no effect by this position. It can be concluded that Gen Z are willing to it do whatever it takes to survive the current economic market, while keeping the above factors in mind and expect to be compensated for in accordance to their skill and qualification with respect to competition. It all stems on the degree of socialization and work ethic on a social level and how Gen Z from various backgrounds may perceive this idea. Further research must be conducted to find correlations of aforementioned factors to find a direct causation with productivity, longevity and professional integrity.
