Jim Simpson, operations manager at Vibram, said Millennials have “brought an open, fresh, fun vibe to the company.” At Vibram, employees go for runs on their lunch breaks, sit on exercise balls at their desks, and walk the halls in workout shorts.
“They’re quick to adapt,” Simpson said. “They say, ‘This makes sense, let’s do this.’ ” He added that he has had to get used to younger employees “texting in sick,” instead of calling when they are going to miss work.
