[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not where I work (F500). The boomers are almost completely gone now. Because they retired! All the senior leadership are people in their 40s-50s, possibly into early 60s.

I see a lot of anger against the boomers online, but the anger is ignorant because boomers are already retired/rapidly retiring/rapidly dying off. Boomers are OLD! Remember this! They're not hogging jobs. [/quote]

They hogged jobs, got pensions, blocked Gen-X from rising in large numbers, eliminated pensions, overstayed, then retired during Covid to golf in Florida on 50% pay for doing nothing.

They hugged jobs until Gen-Xers were too old to be shiny new high-rise potentials.  That's how it happened.  During the downturns, they laid off the slightly younger people (5-10 years younger).

I had a ringside seat.[/quote]

Fantasy.[/quote]

Not fantasy.  There's data.  I had a friend in workforce analytics.  Some people on his team got let go because they assumed more Boomers would retire and faster.  In other words they inaccurately forecasted attrition rates.[/quote]
