Millennials are often accused of being impatient, self-entitled, narcissistic, tough to engage and impossible to lead. They place individuality ahead of community and they value extrinsic affirmation and constantly seek praise in order to get it. Modern society dishes it out to them much easier than it did to previous generations, thanks to the immediacy of social media. This generation is in constant need for likes, fans, followers, and heaps of praise on a constant basis. Because the highly addictive “likes” have become social currency, the millennials find any form of criticism hard to take. Shying away from criticism has meant that they shy away from real-world connections with peers and superiors who might dole it out.

Sounds like we have a Millenial in the White House.
So I guess the answer is: when reality hits he just invent imaginary ones and call reality fake news.
So which non-millenial group is the one that feels a constant need to bash other generations, makes inane stereotypes on a large swath of people, and fails to use the critical thinking skills needed to realize companies are still prosperous and moving forward despite having an "impossible to lead" millenial workforce? What do you think, OP?
I'm kind of optimistic for the future; if nothing else, there should be less people around to call millenials narcissistic and self-entitled while making the previous generation out to be the chosen ones.

You referred only to the first third of the article that discussed the negative aspects of Millennials and ignored the remainder, that was positive. A very dishonest way of reviewing something.
Really? The guy who blames President Obama for his lack of wherewithal to start his own business doesn't get to call out ANYONE for being "entitled" or to post articles about their "work ethic".
Learn to pull yourself up by the bootstraps and stop blaming others for your lack of success in life, you goddamn chump.

Every generation has had similar criticisms of the one that came after them. Yawn.
