Aren't probationary periods pretty standard, in many/all industries and countries too not just software?

- CogitoCogito 3y agoYes and such a system makes hiring so much easier because mistakes cost much less. But the US ties things like healthcare to employment so a company that has a reputation for firing people after hiring them (however legitimate) would probably be one people would avoid. In Sweden, for example, I’ve found interviews so much more reasonable. Then again, I had healthcare there regardless of employment.
- OJFord 3y agoOh, I see. I'm in the UK, so more like Sweden; no experience of having healthcare tied to employment (other than optional private healthcare as a perk).
