Indian Gen Z Prefers Stability Over Startups, Report Finds

Indian Gen Z Prefers Stability Over Startups, Report Finds- Grapevine

I'll be happy to answer any questions about GenZ!

GenZ are the most diverse generation (accelerated by growing up with the internet since we were 4 years old) and you cannot generalise by saying 'this is genz' because no matter what, not even 30% of us are similar.
  
Yes, we run after validation on Instagram. And yes it's unhealthy. But it's not fair to single us out. Older generations have also been obsessed with TV News, FB and Twitter. No need to deny, we all know.
  
GenZ also more openly talks about mental health and we call out things which the older generations just accepted as 'aisa hi hota hai'. Think Gender Inclusivity, Harmful Climate Practices, Running after only Salary, Marriage and Kids, Jobs where you're not treated with Basic Human Dignity, Shitty Mental Health, etc. 
 
We're conscious about prioritising our mental health, even though it's tougher for us than ever before, so we're sorry if our calling things 'toxic' annoys you a little.

We're all extremely concerned about Climate Change because we know we're the last generation which can fix this.

Gen Z in India is gearing up to be a major economic player, with their spending power projected to hit $2 trillion by 2035. Right now, they’re influencing 43% of total consumption, mainly in fashion and dining.

Gen-Z Driving India's economy?

Software Engineer

What is it that you like and dislike about them in general?

What are some of your interesting takes on your GenZ co-workers?

They talk about restuarants alot. I think 60% of their conversation is around which restaurant or pub is "cute" or "vibes".  
 But that might be a Bangalore thing. 
 Also they watch alot of Indian OTT and nothing else. 
 Saare chutiya indian shows dekh liye but Oppenheimer nhe dekhi abhi tak, which is shameful.

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Just wanted to know why and how come our companies have horrible WLB and cultures compared to western counterparts. Is it the fault of the employees for accepting whatever and acting like sheep or is it just the mindset of the senior management to treat their subordinates the same horrible way they were treated as some sort of sick rite of passage ?

Why do Indian Companies / Indian management have horrible work life balance and cultures compared to others  ?

Gen Z generation, those born between 1990 and 2010, is bringing to the workforce a different set of values, behaviors, and expectations, creating ripples throughout workplaces.

Opportunities are so much more then when I stared. We never flaunted getting a job into a Top company even when options were fewer. What is the need to give average gyan on linkedin for getting a job offer. Open question to Gen Z why are you so desperate for social validation?

Why India lags behind in AI

We’ll be able to move mountains once we stop obsessing with IITians. They work their asses off to get into IITs to get high paying jobs, it’s as simple as that. Train tier-2,3 college students who have nothing to lose. You’ll achieve 100x more optimal results with 100x less investment.

The way all new interns, SDE1.2 & Mostly GenZ are investing in MF. There were multiple people in same family having 3-5 Cr in next 15-18 years. Those not investing will feel the heat later. 😨🥹

Gen Z is more focused on investing

Engineering Manager

How are companies and startups doing marketing for Gen Z? Does anybody have any idea about this?

Gen Z 🤔

Now a days work is never ever getting completed, we are working even after the office hours because every project is a p0 project, also managers are autocrative then a tech lead who dont have l0 knowledge but will comment on your timelines and i really doubt that with this culture in it industry i would really want to continue for long run. 
Are there some better career pivots that should be consider in mid 20s to avoid life long suffering ?

Hustle culture and toxicity

When I was in melbourne, I met a waiter in an Indian restaurant. He did his bachelor's in biotech and worked at this resto part time. Post his studies he got some job opportunity but stuck to this resto job. I asked him why? He said I get a free house and 2 meals. In 5 years I can collect enough money to go to hometown and buy 2-3 shops and m done for life. That time I was like how can a person be such? With no ambition?  
 Now I empathize after having high BP, neck pain, and many stress induced illnesses. Work on something, be really good at it and give it time. Its ok to be rich at 45, no need to have millions today. I used to think I missed the bus if I didn't make millions by 30. Now a bit wiser.

What does unemployment around you look like? Or if not around us, for people trying to come out of Tier 2/3 towns. These mass recruiters (behemoths like Capgmeni & Cognizant + TCS Infosys) are actually the gateway for many into a city life. In the absence of it, it's scary to think what they're up to.

What happens to those 1.5L students/professionals? Scares me everyday.

We probably will see an unprecedented economic divide in this country going forward if the unemployment rate stays this high. 
 And we know for a fact the government has tried to suppress this number to paint a rosy picture

I feel moving outside India is better for people who wants to stay in tech . If people are 15 yrs experience as developers they are replaced or they have to move to mgmt . Very few opportunities for solution architects in India or just retire as senior developers. People work in Denmark , Finland , Australia, Switzerland can retire as cobol developers or . Net there is no need to constant upskill . Salary is less or growth is less compared to India but you have wlb and life . Think do all of us have to run for growth , work for startup or hustle to create his own. Most young  people in India wants to leave the country as cut throught competition . Do you all agree

Rat race in India in tech

The US is in its late stage capitalist phase, a ship that's going to sink for the next 50 years. If you're a young person there it doesn't make sense to work as hard as your Grandpa the reward on average isn't as great. 

India on the other hand is poised to become a great multi-trillion $ economy.

Onto something huge. We're talking like 10x growth of the economy here.

Start-ups that have made it like Razorpay, Swiggy, PayTM, even Cred, if they survive will be really huge as capital in the country, liquidity and lifestyles go up over the next 50 years. 

Be the capitalist, take the risks, make bets, work and stack up promotions and money.

Don't join an Infosys and work 70 hours there, do it for a start up of any scale you believe is going to make it. Or better yet start your own.

Work hard and build in India 🇮🇳

I'm tired of this bullcrap. India will not keep growing if the US goes under. And all that growth shit is exaggerated. Divide those numbers by our population and it doesn't amount to shit. 
 All your fancy startups don't even combine up in value to even a single big tech company. 
 Yes we are growing but the inflation is also going up. On the whole I barely see any improvement.

"Age is just a number, they say. Do you think so? Or, does it have an impact on one's career and employability? Take this survey on #Ageism in #IndiaInc. and help us study this under-researched topic!

Have you or someone you know faced Ageism at workplace?

Business Development Manager

Hearing alot about GenZ not being serious about work, lack of expected manners, careless about impact (these are not my opinions) etc, i was wondering this is the reason why 
a) millennials are able to save their jobs bcoz their managers are used to of certain way of working 
b) freshers are not getting jobs as it was 3-4 years back, even out of top colleges! (Source - Latest IIT placement reports)

is it true or i am just being optimistic that my job is secured? 😂

GenZ as workforce

Sales Manager

I have an offer in India from indian startup offering 25 LPA which is remote  while an MNC in UK , manchester offering 45K GBP, What should I do?

Should I move to UK?

I have saved up close to a lac from my Internships, will be starting FT soon. I was thinking of YOLOing my entire savings by buying Zomato shares.

I really believe the company will grow multifolds in the future, also I won’t have qualms if they don’t do well and I end up losing my money.

I feel it’s better to take a bet on this as the money isn’t really significant and is better used if Invested somewhere. I might just end up wasting it buying AJ1s, Airpods and all that expensive stuff.

What do you guys think about this? What’s your view on Zomato’s future?

PS- No Index funds, MF advices pls. I’ve done enough research and will Invest once I start getting monthly salary from my FT Job.
