Anybody see a pattern?
There would only be a pattern if you had a number of jobs with similar generational configurations and similar issues.
I work for a company with a Gen X district manager and Gen X GM. I believe the owners are also Gen X, though I'm not 100% positive of that. My coworkers are all Millies. It is a good company, and growing--we are opening another location. I like my boss and my coworkers, and people generally seem happy here, or at least content.
I was unhappy in my job before this, with a Boomer boss and Boomer and Millie coworkers. The company closed our location, and I wondered afterwards why I didn't leave sooner. But I love my Millie coworkers at my current job, and I've had decent Boomer managers in the past.
Perhaps you ought to try looking elsewhere. Don't assume that just because there is a chance you might end up with another Gen X boss that you will face the same problems.

If your company is lying about its pensions, then it is lying about everything else.
