If you’ve been feeling mentally drained at work, you’re not alone. A new survey says burnout is booming—especially for younger workers.
According to a new report from Seramount Inc., nearly 7 in 10 U.S. employees are showing signs of burnout. That includes feeling exhausted, unmotivated, or just plain done with everything.
Here’s the breakdown by generation:
- 77% of millennials said they feel burnt out
- 72% of Gen Z said the same
- 62% of Gen X
- And only 38% of boomers (because they’re either chill… or already retired)
And when it comes to feeling supported with mental health?
- 68% of Gen Z say they don’t feel like their workplace cares
- 61% of millennials agree
- Even 45% of boomers feel that way
What’s wild is, even senior managers and middle managers are exhausted. Around 80% of managers said they’re burned out — compared to just 18% of executives.
So yeah… if your job has you staring at the wall wondering if this is all there is — you’re in very burnt out company.
