This post seems ridiculous to me. If you would like to know why your employees are unhappy then why would you ask random strangers on the internet why they are leaving your company? If your (or anyone's) workplace culture discourages employees to air grievances then you aren't entitled to know why they would like to switch companies. Most likely, I think that young people don't wish to be percieved or talked about as whiny (or any other words you can use), in the event that they raise issues which management or colleagues view as unimportant or inconsequential for the company. I'm also curious as to how you know that your Millennial team members are happy, as opposed to working just because they need the money and don't see better opportunities elsewhere.
I don't think you got down far enough to the place where I explained I did ask them and got a bs answer. Or how I know my Millennials are happy with the job (mostly, there's always something that could be better). And I did get them a lot more money last year, risking the wrath of every other member of senior management.
Talking down to anyone at my workplace is a huge no no. Our owner/CEO is a seriously old school Cypriot and takes his (mainly British inherited) civility very seriously.
