Prioritizing hiring over retention is the least bad thing a company does. Companies do terrible things, like: - Dissolve good teams. - Losing great employees for nothing - Prohibition of documenting procedures (Yes, I've worked on one of these) - Encouraging bullying behavior. - 50% of time lost in meetings. The explanation of all this is that... 99% of the companies where I worked the objective was not profit, they existed only for someone to demonstrate control over other people. Meetings is showing the power of "request a meeting". An employee asks for a raise? We don't give in to employees, etc. If you understand this, all the weird stuff makes sense.
