Share Share Article via Facebook Share Article via Twitter Share Article via LinkedIn Share Article via EmailNYU professor Suzy Welch on the Gen Z 'funemployment' fadSuzy Welch, NYU Stern School of Business professor and Brunswick Group senior advisor, joins 'Squawk Box' to discuss the new 'funemployment' trend amongst Gen Z workers, what it means for the labor market, and more.
NYU Stern professor Suzy Welch told CNBC that "funemployment" shows a shift in how Gen Z views work. Welch said in an interview with CNBC that Gen Z — those born from mid-1990s to early 2010s — isn't afraid of unemployment like previous generations. Welch told CNBC that while Gen Z isn't promoting joblessness by choice, their perspective on the issue has shifted "far away" from that of previous generations. They think: 'We're going to be together for as long as we're together, then I'm going to be funemployed, and then I'm going to move on to my next engagement.'" However, Gen Z has indicated they're more concerned about work-life balance and less willing to put up with a toxic work culture.
