The Millenial Mentality and Work

WSJ had an article on the recent trend that businesses are doing less criticism of employees and more talking about the positives.  This reminds me of politics, where one comes off as negative when criticizing, even if true.  My hunch is that the reported shift in management attitude is because of Millennials.

Yeah, I know I'm harsh on Millennials.  As someone on the tail end of Gen X, I see a lot of people younger than me being totally vain and self-centered, expecting praise for every little thing they do, even if mediocre.  There are very few Millennials who I can say that I trust, simply because from what I've seen, they have a lame work ethic.  But yeah, they're the young people of today, so I can't totally shit on them.
