I lead teams of about 100 people and we've been having a huge problem with hiring new and junior talent since the pandemic. People switch jobs very quickly. What I'm noticing for the new generation, those that are fresh and recent college grads, is that their attitude is totally different. They will quit in a heartbeat without even exploring options which may work out better for them. They sometimes don't even give 2 weeks notice which fukks it up for the rest of the team. They severely lack professional etiquette like emails and meetings. Some people don't even attend meetings because they have lunch or whatever. Some people talk to clients like their own friends. A lot of them severely lack basic math skills. A lot of them complain about having to work more than 3 hours a day. I think the pandemic played a big role in this especially with work from home.
It's also a candidate market so lots of companies just throwing money. Eventually things will normalize once people understand you just can't leave a place after 6 months and think you're going to advance your career.
