“Gen Y needs to be aware that what they publish online can come back to haunt them in the workplace,” said Dan Schawbel, founder of Millennial Branding, the company that conducted the “Gen Y Facebook Study”. “Gen Y managers and co-workers have insight into their social lives, which could create an awkward workplace setting or even result in a termination.”
Most of Gen Y stays at their first job for about two years. The study looked at the most popular job titles and workplaces among millennials, who are known for their entrepreneurial spirit. About 4.4% of millennials work in the technology industry, which is the fourth highest work industry.

In today’s economy, with startups are booming, only 7% of Gen Y works for a Fortune 500 company. Being an owner of a business was the fifth most popular job title among Gen Y.
“If large corporations want to remain competitive, they need to aggressively recruit Gen Y workers,” Millennial Branding wrote in its report. “Gen Y will form 75% of the workforce by 2025 (according to the Business and Professional Women Foundation) and are actively shaping corporate culture and expectations. Big corporations can’t afford to be left behind.”
The U.S. Military, Walmart, Starbucks and Target employ the most millennials who identified their workplace on Facebook. Among corporate companies, Deloitte is the largest employer of millennials. Many millennials work as bartenders and waitstaff during their college years because paid internships are hard to land.
Millennial Branding collected the data for the infographic below by evaluating 4 million Gen Y Facebook profiles, mostly from the U.S., via Identified.com’s database. Identified.com’s database logs more than 50 million Facebook users’ work history, education and demographic data.
