From Typewriters to TikTok: Generations at Work

Exploring Gen X, Millennial, and Gen Z perspectives in our evolving workplace.

The workplace has changed radically. From landlines to laptops, 9 to 5s to flexible schedules, every generation has contributed to shaping how, why, and where we work.

In this video series, let’s dive into what Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z had to say about how they see the world of work.


A Gen X Perspective

We've gone from fax machines to flexible working, floppy disks to digital nomads. In this mini-series, we’re diving into how every generation has shaped (and shaken up) the modern workplace.

A Gen X lens by our co-founder, Francine Kane.

“Loyalty. Long hours. The sacred company car.

But are we the forgotten middle—or the bridge between eras?”

A Millennial Perspective

Content creator, Claudy Ward, gets real about what it means to be a Millennial at work.

  • Tech-savvy but tired of outdated systems

  • Highly qualified but still hustling

  • A push for purpose, flexibility, and fair pay

From growing up with cassette tapes and iPods to navigating a job market where degrees aren't enough, Millennials are carving out their own path, one that values balance just as much as ambition.


A Gen Z Perspective

Student and intern, Shazna Mansour-Lieutier, shares what it’s really like entering the workforce as part of Gen Z.

  • Born in the digital age with a passion for purpose

  • Prioritising wellbeing, flexibility, and mental health

  • Choosing meaning over money, and collaboration over competition

Gen Z grew up online, where side hustles, self-expression, and social change are the norm. Now they’re redefining what it means to show up at work.

One Shared Future

Whether you remember your first office cubicle or your first remote login, one thing is clear: the future of work is collaborative.

Each generation brings its own insight, energy, and expectations—and together, we’re building a world of work that’s more inclusive, adaptable, and human.
