Default How do I know when it's time to get new brake pads?

Hey guys I was wondering if you all could help me out with something. I've been noticing that when I start up my Z and begin to reverse/more forward my brakes squeal super loud. And I've been noticing that the noise has been getting louder. It only happens for the first couple of stop then it goes away. I was just wondering if the sound meant I need new brake pads? And if I change the brake pads should I get new rotors too? Is there a forum favorite? Is there one that won't give off so much brake dust or be aggressive? My car is my daily driver and it only has 24k miles. I do not track my car or drive really fast so I don't need very powerful brake pads. I would really appreciate some guidance
