Intergenerational issues in the workplace can cause tension between the employees and employer. Millennials feel that it is harder to grow and develop their careers in organizations because of this problem due to an absence of guidance from other generations in higher positions.

They are also victims of low wages. Many of these frontline employees have families and expenses to take care of. When their salaries become too small to set off their debts they get stressed, are not happy and perform below the expected level of performance, and this negatively affects business growth. Some employers also deny them leave, even though such leave is an entitlement protected by labor laws and not a privilege.
