Great Resignation aux États-Unis, difficultés de recrutement accentuées en France ou encore, quiet quitting et protestations à l'égard du grand capital dans les grandes écoles (e.g., HEC Paris, AgroParisTech) : autant de phénomènes qui pointent vers un ras-le-bol de la part des salariés, tout particulièrement auprès des jeunes générations. De fait, de nombreux médias se font le relai d'une « quête de sens » au travail, qui se traduirait notamment par de nouvelles exigences à l'égard de l'employeur (surtout en matière d'engagement environnemental et sociétal), et par la recherche d'un meilleur équilibre vie pro-vie perso. La littérature faisant état de différences marquées liées à l'appartenance sociale et au niveau d'éducation, ce Doc propose d'apporter une première pièce au puzzle, en se focalisant sur les attentes des jeunes issus des CSP supérieures. Il repose sur un matériau empirique original, qui croise les regards de 20 alumni issus respectivement de l'École polytechnique et de l'université de Harvard pour mieux identifier ce qui fait la singularité ou non des diplômés de grandes écoles dans leur rapport au travail. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux chefs d'entreprises, décideurs publics et chercheurs désireux de mieux comprendre le rapport qu'entretiennent les jeunes générations à l'égard du travail.

A startling discovery-that job market success after college is largely random-forces a reappraisal of education, opportunity, and the American dream. As a gateway to economic opportunity, a college degree is viewed by many as America's great equalizer. And it's true: wealthier, more connected, and seemingly better-qualified students earn exactly the same pay as their less privileged peers. Yet, the reasons why may have little to do with bootstraps or self-improvement-it might just be dumb luck. That's what sociologist Jessi Streib proposes in The Accidental Equalizer, a conclusion she reaches after interviewing dozens of hiring agents and job-seeking graduates. Streib finds that luck shapes the hiring process from start to finish in a way that limits class privilege in the job market. Employers hide information about how to get ahead and force students to guess which jobs pay the most and how best to obtain them. Without clear routes to success, graduates from all class backgrounds face the same odds at high pay. The Accidental Equalizer is a frank appraisal of how this "luckocracy" works and its implications for the future of higher education and the middle class. Although this system is far from eliminating American inequality, Streib shows that it may just be the best opportunity structure we have-for better and for worse.
