Description
With the retirement of the Baby Boomer generation, the workforce is getting younger. Millennials will soon make up the majority of the workplace, and it is therefore imperative for organizations to understand the values and work expectations of this emerging generation. This thesis examines the importance of employment benefits towards work life balance and work satisfaction to Millennials, and what employers can do to recruit and retain this generation of workers in the current marketplace. The data for this study was collected by surveying MBA students enrolled at the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University. A total of sixty-eight students completed the survey, forty-five being Millennials and twenty-three members of Generation X. The data was analyzed using various statistical techniques to assess the generational importance of work life balance and its relationship between particular employee benefits and recruitment and retention at organizations.
