Businesses who want to hire experts in their niche for pennies on the dollar will have a hard time finding people.
The great thing about people is that they can get really good at things in the right environment.
Build your own experts and recognize the incentive to retain your investment by keeping workers happy.
- pylua 3y agoThis is the simple truth. I feel like a lot of companies have over promised and hired people that could not do the job for cheap or simply don’t pay to retain people. The reality is that this has created a race to the bottom for everyone.
- gorjusborg 3y agoIronically, the erosion of company -> employee loyalty has destroyed employee -> company loyalty, which has made it hard for companies to retain talent they've helped foster. While it might seem attractive for a company to invest little-to-nothing in keeping talent, they're making small short-term gains for a long-term loss. The trouble is that it isn't viewed as a loss, it's viewed as business-as-usual: 'it's so hard to find skilled people'. The rise of publicly-traded companies doesn't help this, as it tends to encourage short-term tactics over long-term strategy.
