Question
Are millennials lazy?
Position‹2 of 3›

No, millennials are not lazy.

This position holds that millennials are not lazy but, if anything, hard workers. It argues they take less time off than older generations, build careers around what they love, and tend to value finding purpose in their work over simply maximising how much they earn.

  1. Millennials make money from what they love
    Millennials work incredibly hard to make money doing what they love.
  2. Millennials take less time off
    Nothing demonstrates the millennial work ethic than the fact they take significantly fewer vacation days than previous generations.
  3. Millennials value finding purpose over how much money they can make
    Work for work's sake holds limited appeal to a generation that doesn't believe in it anyway. Millennials who follow their dreams will be able to make equivalent income to their parents.
