A passion for sustainability

Sustainability is a critical differentiator for organizations trying to recruit younger engineers. Gen Z and Millennial engineers¹ are more likely than more experienced engineers to prioritize achieving their organization’s long-term internal sustainability goals (52% vs. 35%). These younger engineers are even more likely to say that sustainability is extremely important to their organizations and have a more positive outlook on the state of sustainability at their organizations.

However, retaining younger talent will require organizations to live up to their commitments to adopt sustainable business practices, which will help maintain the positive attitudes that younger engineers have toward their chosen place of work.
