Abstract
It is revealed in the investigation, the participants of which were 160 respondents in the age from 25 to 36 y.o., that the employees in the epoch of juvenility prefer to work in intensively growing organizations. The hierarchical structures of both positive and negative work motivation in the epoch of juvenility possess a complex structure. In the structure of positive work motivation, seventeen motives are identified, forming seven levels, that significantly differ in the strength of the expression of motives. The structure of negative motivation includes eleven negative motives, which are divided into three levels according to the strength of their expression. The first levels in the hierarchy of positive work motives of employees in the epoch of juvenility are occupied by: stable and reliable work, high financial rewards and career growth. Among the negative motives of employees in the epoch of juvenility prevail: unstable and unreliable work, fear of dismissal, low financial rewards.
