I'm not sure I am following this. If you want to attract actual talent, you have to pay full relocation. The good ones have stable jobs they enjoy. And they are going to pay their own relocation for a new job that may not work out? I don't think so. The only people that pay their own relocation are the desperate and the completely untalented.
As far as having to pay back if you are laid off or the company is otherwise dissatisfied due to their own lack of having a decent vetting process, ha ha ha. Indentured servitude. That's a new one. I'm sure that will get the best of the best. Not.
- nostrademons 16y agoRelo packages are a perk that's given out to those with a certain amount of experience. I got one last time I changed jobs, but I barely squeaked in (official policy was that it's only for candidates with 5+ years of experience, I had 4 years, they said "We'll work something out"). And I would've had to pay it back if I worked at the company for less than a year. The vast majority of my friends did not get relo packages, because this is their first job out of school. Companies don't typically offer relo for fresh college grads. I thought this discussion was about junior engineers?
- waterlesscloud 16y agoIf you can't find employees, you have to get out of the mindset of "perks" that employees are lucky to get and start offering what it takes to get what you want. Or keep whining there's no employees. One of these paths is more productive than the other.
