That and a complete unwillingness to educate and mentor your workforce. I don't understand why the government should step in to help employers because they want training to be somebody else's problem.
- enraged_camel 8y agoCompanies don't train their workforce because said workforce then leaves and joins another company, which then benefits from that training. ...that's how it was explained to me by an executive at my former job (a big part of the reason why it's my former job).
- Apocryphon 8y agoCalifornia is an at-will state and all that, but surely executives and business consultants can structure some sort of incentive package to cause workers to stay for at least some minimum duration?
- dorchadas 8y agoIf a company was willing to train me and provide me decent salary and benefits, I'd totally stay. If there was room to move up in the company, and they kept offering good salary and benefits, I'd probably never seriously consider leaving unless I hated the job or just got an amazing offer (barring events like needing to take care of parents, etc, of course). I feel like a lot of people would prefer the stability, even, especially if the company is investing in them.
- rhexs 8y agoThe workforce leaves because the company doesn't raise the salary to account for new training. You can't have it both ways.
- turtlecloud 8y agoThat by definition is called a “market force”. They should pay them more once trained.
