As GP said, sometimes, there is a cascade effect. One employee quits, and the whole team follows. Sometimes going to a competitor.
In tech, it is relatively easy for an employee to hedge against getting fired. It is a well paid job, in high demand.
It is not the same if the company fires its janitors, but I don't think I will stay in a literally filthy company that fires its janitors.
- Volundr 4y agoIf one employee quitting takes out your whole team, the problem isn't the employee that quit. Something is seriously wrong with your working environment and the whole thing was balanced on a knife edge. > In tech, it is relatively easy for an employee to hedge against getting fired. It is a well paid job, in high demand. I have a friend who several years ago who was laid off with 3 months severance. They left feeling cheerful, telling people that if they couldn't find a job in 3 months, they deserved to be fired. Fortunately it only took slightly longer than 3 months and it's something we can laugh about now. The whole "it'll be easy to find a job with this skill-set" is true right up until it's not and is a risky backup plan.
