Gen-Zers are opting for a more entrepreneurial approach to their careers. And this, writes Intuit, represents “a material shift in how younger generations approach work, purpose, and financial independence.” Gen-Zers and Millennials have a strong desire to be their own boss, according to the survey. Nearly half of the 1,000 people Intuit spoke with said they wanted to be in charge of their own destiny. Another 42 percent said they were pursuing their passions with these side gigs. The flexibility of these jobs and the chance to build something personal and unique were also key motivators. Gen Zers’ status as digital natives, the first generation to grow up with the internet as a part of daily life, is a big part of the embrace of side gigs as well. Some 80 percent of Gen-Z business owners started their businesses online or had a mobile component.
