Generation snap
From the case “Generation snap”, several surveys are conveyed to illustrate the idea that although there are some differences between the different generations, the discrepancies are not the ones people used to know about and they are tiny ones.

There are many factors that affect employees’ attitude towards job. Showing a positive feeling about job which results from an evolution of its characteristics is what job satisfaction means.
