The study defined Gen Z as those born between 1997 and 2012, but the research involved only Gen Zers already in the workforce, not those still in school.
In its interviews, 51% of Gen Zers said salary was the most important part of a job, whereas 47% of older workers said the same.
BI recently reported that more than half of Gen Z and millennial workers are living paycheck to paycheck.
In the survey, 33% of Gen Z workers told researchers they expect to be promoted to leadership roles at their company, compared with only 19% of older workers.
And 44% of Gen Z workers want to be in charge of others versus only 27% of those outside that generation.
