The relationship between generation-y, aka millennials, and baby boomers has never been a smooth alliance – and this is particularly noticeable within the workplace.
This may be a problem within every generation on the subject of their elders. Still, a regular complaint from millennials is that boomer colleagues are patronizing, condescending, and undermining.
Many boomers have complained of feeling irrelevant within the workplace – mainly owing to the increasing reliance on technology – which some boomers struggle to keep up with.
The two generations are often poles apart when it comes to cultural beliefs. This can be anything from social media, cancel culture, work ethics, relationships, money management, etc.
