employee and workplace engagement. Data was collected from 200 respondents through
questionnaires administered via Google Forms, focused on demographics, culture shock
factors, and engagement levels. The research questions focus on the role of individual
factors, employee engagement factors, and workplace engagement factors in the
adjustment process of Generation Z employees. It examines the ways in which these factors
influence self-performance, work-life balance, and productivity that are central to
reintegration into the workforce. As a result, the research offers a comprehensive analysis
of the difficulties faced by the members of Generation Z at their first workplaces and the
ways they manage them. Therefore, presenting the factors that explain their cultural
experiences, the study offers the view on how organizational culture is changing at a time
