Money is important, but respect is more important.

The domestic epidemic situation has gradually improved recently, but the impact of the epidemic on the economy has just begun. Many companies’ recruitment plans are frozen directly until next year, and the usual lively spring recruits have become particularly deserted this year.
Recruitment has decreased, the workload has not decreased, and may even be more. So there was an argument online saying that companies should now recruit young people in large numbers.
The reason is simple and cheap.
I have heard this opinion more than once recently:
“Enterprises want to save themselves, they must first expel those middle-aged people with high wages, and then recruit a large number of young people to work hard. In the end, you will be able to keep your wages low and low, and truly achieve open source and cost-saving. “
It sounds reasonable at first glance, but if you break this point of view, you will find that there are a lot of problems.
First of all, expelling middle-aged people into young people can really bring the company back to life? Without the experience and management of middle-aged people, can a group of young people really stand out? This is all taken for granted.
I am particularly funny about the last sentence. Drawing a pie for young people and then desperately pressing their wages can open source and cut costs.
This is not open source and throttling, this is a robbery.
Unexpectedly, the society and economy have developed for so long, and the concept of “youth equals cheap labor” has not changed. When I was studying, I was fooled by these words. After more than ten years, this old routine was not renovated at all.
Unfortunately, this set no longer works, because today’s young people are not only idiots, but also very smart and mature.
They all have steelyards in their hearts, how big things get paid, how much they pay in exchange for how much. Everything is an equivalent exchange, there is no such thing as twists and turns.
If you have enough money, you can do whatever you want; if you do n’t give enough money, you will complain more, and I will say goodbye to you.
Many recruiters and business owners may wish to ask themselves, when you are portraying the beautiful blueprint of the future to the young people in front of you, what is in your mind, “so that I can press him a few hundred dollars”?
This young man thinks about it. It’s just that everyone is a decent person and doesn’t want to wear it out in person.
Now young people are not reluctant to endure hardships, on the contrary they are able to endure hardships, but the question is how much can you use to motivate them after hardships and achievements?
They think the problem is mature, you promise me that I will listen in the future, but this does notDoes not affect me to get the reward I deserve now.
Ding is Ding, Mao is Mao, and we need to look at it now and in the future.
Young people are not stupid at all. They need both spiritual encouragement and material support. To put it bluntly:
Be careful with them.
The intention is to teach them practical knowledge and skills, to think about problems and the correct way of doing things, to help them correct past bad habits, and cultivate clear career planning awareness.
This is what they want, a very practical “future”, rather than a promising future for the company. The company will pay dividends next year and cash out the next year.
I did n’t say anything about the eight characters, did the person who said it believe it?
If you ca n’t do all of the above, at least enough money should be enough. Because this is the only reason left for them to struggle willingly.
Young people do n’t just work for money. They only look at money when you ca n’t give them anything.
But many workplace veterans and even the bosses are not aware of this.
The company is in a mess, employees use second-hand or even third-hand office equipment, but the boss ’s own room is magnificent; the employee has to wait for several months for reimbursement, but the boss uses the company ’s money to entertain Relatives and friends eat dinner, perpetually is several thousand per capita.
This behavior is equivalent to you patting the young man ’s shoulder and telling him:
“The boy tries harder so that I can drive a new Rolls Royce.”
The comfortable things are all enjoyed by the boss, and the work of cattle and horses is shared by the employees. A simple change of position will find that this does not work.
True smart bosses are all struggling with young people, not sitting on their own. If you make money, everyone will share it; if you lose money, everyone will bear it together.
This is the most basic respect in the workplace.
I know a few people who have become bosses and are loved by young employees. The original starting point is respect.
In their words, I respect your value, your commitment, and your expectations of the company’s future, so I will create as good an environment as possible to make you feel my respect for you.
After 95% in their company, their salary can only be regarded as medium level in the market, but the team cohesion is particularly strong.
When working overtime, the boss takes everyone to work overtime together, milk tea supper is enough. Make moneyBy the way, on the premise of ensuring the company’s profit, the bonus will be distributed to the team. This bonus is actually not much, but it represents a kind of respect and makes people feel dignified when working here.
Finance gathers people together, this is the reason.
This is a small company’s approach, and a large company like Huawei Ali knows how to use money to show respect for young people.
Huawei ’s 2 million annual salary for PhD graduates is the best example. Young does not mean cheap, young people also have a flash point, their value can not be judged only by age.
It’s like buying futures. A good company must treat young people by looking at his potential for at least three to five years in the future, instead of just finding it and using it instead of quickly dismissing it.
Even if you take a step back and say that if you want to paint a pie for young people, it should be a pie built on a material basis.
The wages are not enough for people ’s monthly rent of water and electricity. They have to endure two or three hours of commuting to work every day. Well off?
Not every young person is a fearless “back wave” who can enjoy the beauty of economic development without worry and live a life in the filter of the circle of friends.
Most are young people who work hard for their lives. If you check the annual income survey of young people in first- and second-tier cities, you will find that the reality is far cruel than the advertisements. They can tolerate the temporary low wages, but they are afraid that they cannot see the hope of the future, and they keep going down.
Many companies shout so many slogans and dance so many times during employee training, it is not as meaningful as a word of respect. Among them, the young people need to be respected the most.
Yes, they do have no experience and are immature in doing things, but this does not mean they are worthless. On the contrary, if they are properly taught and urged, their growth rate is amazing.
I have a deep understanding of this.
I have brought many young people myself, and I find that they have a long-term perspective. Do you say they lack money now? Indeed, but they only want money, not really.
They know that twenty-four or five-year-old is the best time to accumulate energy and wait for thick hair. What they are looking for in their work is a constant sense of accomplishment, which has both a sense of material accomplishment and a sense of spiritual accomplishment.
Respect for them is the thing that most enhances the sense of accomplishment of young people.
Instead, those who think they are youngPeople are very cheap, and many of them were regarded as cheap labor when they were young. It’s not easy for people to reach middle age, and they have some power in their hands. Finally, their daughter-in-law becomes a mother-in-law.
Because of the suffering you have suffered, you must let all subsequent people suffer all intact. This kind of mind is really narrow. No one would be willing to do things with a narrow-minded person. Such a team must end up in a sand, and it is impossible to succeed.
Everyone says that the young people do n’t eat big cakes, essentially because they are not easy to cheat, they will think independently, and they will distinguish right from wrong.
Going to treat them as little whites who do n’t understand anything, will one day be taught the other way around. Learn to respect them, rather than condescending, young people will be willing to struggle with you.
These are all encouraged by Jun.
