Imagine if getting fired and immediately owing a vast sum of money to your employer became a common practice at most companies. Might lead the way to higher levels of employee retention and may be seen as some kind of solution to people not doing their jobs or doing the bare minimum just for a paycheck, especially in undesirable but necessary jobs.

- xwdv 4y agoI’m merely analyzing ideas. You’d probably turn blanch if you attended some of the product development meetings that happen behind closed doors at my employer.
- fundad 4y agoImagine getting paid back by someone you just terminated. It's fantasy, fuck these guys. Seriously pay nothing back until you speak to a lawyer. Bolt will be out of business by the time the loans go into collection, then offer to settle for $1.
- fnordpiglet 4y agoSounds like precisely the opposite world I want to live in.
- floren 4y agoIt's disgusting as hell so yes, I wouldn't be surprised to see it in the next few years. Maybe when you start your new job, you have to pay them a $10k deposit, which will "vest" back to you over the next four years; quit early and it's gone!
- umeshunni 4y agoThis is/was actually a common practice in IT companies in India, where you have to a pay back a 'bond' if you leave within a year or something.
