Gen Z is the most connected generation in human history. And that's meant huge shifts in how they think about their work and social lives.

This July, Business Insider in partnership with YouGov, conducted a survey of more than 1,800 Americans across five generations, including more than 600 Gen Zers over the age of 18. We asked them about their beliefs, work, money, and about how they connect both online and offline.
