This report by PwC aims to provide insight into the minds of new graduates from around the world entering the workforce for the first time. Businesses are competing fiercely for the best available workers and for the talent that will replace the retiring Boomer generation in the coming few years, and every year, more and more of that talent will be recruited from the ranks of millennials. The research reveals a significant gap between what millennials want and expect from their employer and career and their experience of the workplace - superficial changes that are intended to connect with younger workers, such as unconvincing social media outreach programmes, 'greenwashed' corporate values and diversity tokenism will not work. It highlights that irrespective of the long-term aims and ambition of an individual company, the ability to attract and retain millennials talent will be a vital step to achieving it.
