Comprised of those born after 1980, or those 18-29 years old, they're America's newest generation. (And it'd be more fun if they were called this, no?) But what else are we learning about them, particularly when it comes to the workplace? A new report aimed at Millenials attempts to answer some of our unanswered questions. Who are Millenials? Fifty million people currently fall into the "Millenials" category. Pew Research Center, a nonpartisan fact tank that provides information on the issues, attitudes and trends shaping America and the world, has just released a report called "Millenials: Confident.
