Introduction

The role of work flexibility and remote work preferences is no longer just a perk—it has become essential for many employees, especially Millennials and Gen Z. These generations now make up a large part of the workforce, and their preferences are reshaping how organizations operate. Understanding what drives them to stay or leave a job is crucial for employers aiming to retain talented staff.

Millennials and Gen Z share some similarities, such as being comfortable with technology and valuing meaningful work. However, they also have differences. Millennials often focus on career growth, skill development, and long-term job security, while Gen Z prioritizes flexibility, mental well-being, and the ability to work remotely. For them, the workplace is not just about earning money—it is also about balance, trust, and personal fulfillment.
