Millennials More Likely To ‘Ghost’ Employers

Since Millennial generation has perfected the dark art known as ghosting on Tinder, it now seems they are using those skills in their careers. According to a new survey, even though a hiring manager swiped right on them during an interview, millennials are the most likely to vanish from their jobs entirely.

Why? 

It all comes down to money. The study asked people if they'd ghost their employer if they had an offer from a higher paying job elsewhere, and it just so happens the idea of making more money is too enticing. Strange, I know.

The poll found that when offered more pay elsewhere, half of the millennials would be cool with walking out the office door and ignoring all their employer's calls. And Gen Z has their back on this technique because 50% of them also said they'd leave, too.

The research also found we're pretty bold negotiators as well. A brave 59% of millennials said they'd used a potential job offer to leverage a higher salary, and an even more daring 55% have told prospective employers that they're 'considering other offers' also though they didn't have any. 

How much of a bump in salary would you need to leave your current employer and go somewhere else?
