My friend, Ray, is a senior executive in a national firm that relies heavily on hiring new college graduates. Ray shared that the pay and promotion expectations of these younger workers sometimes seem unreasonable.
But since this next generation is critical to his workforce, Ray’s firm had to find solutions. By studying the problem, they came up with a creative solution.
They now give smaller, but more frequent, raises and they have created more job titles. This has allowed their staff to be recognized more frequently, which has helped Ray’s firm retain more talent.
