    Instant gratification. They get board easy and want results fast. They want to be senior leadership in a decade.

    I believe the perception that millennials are job hoppers is a symptom of a lack of upward mobility provided by senior managers. And “job hopping” is a strategy to further ones career.

    Because 90% of companies are corrupt. If you paid a fair wage for the labor people wouldn't leave. It's a bad stereotype and seems rather ageist.

    Low wages and cost of living provide the incentive to go elsewhere. Because they can. It's possible to work from home and live anywhere.

    I’m a millennial, and find millennials in general to be fragile, entitled and narcissistic - all of these are characteristics shared by people who job hop a lot and are chronic underachievers. Particularily the PC, SJW types.
