Employers demonstrated their infidelity to their staff by paying loyal workers, on average, 7% less than new hires — 20 years ago, salaries were largely the same between new and longtime employees.

It takes a young person being kicked down in a vulnerable moment one time to realize work doesn't care for them and they owe them no loyalty. And since a long time, junior workers are the first to get the axe for circumstances that are no fault of their own.

And when being at a salary that you can barely make it now, staying at that salary as costs shoot up is untenable. So no surprises young workers aren't buying this loyalty bull.
