All the things you've mentioned apply to pretty much every European nation.
The US is the outlier in the civilized world when it comes to labour protection.
Also, funny how every time people start to bitch in general terms about entrepreneurship in a European nation, it always comes down to one thing: you can't treat employees as expendable assets.
BTW, "It's really hard to get French people to adopt the latest trends." The place must be a horror for the fashion industry...
- SandersAK 11y agoI'm not bitching about France. I lived there and had a company. And yes, I agree, most of what I'm saying extends to europe in general. But if you look at innovation centers for the tech industry (and for companies in general) it isn't France / Europe. Also, if you don't think that companies like Orange (which has an infamously high suicide rate) doesn't treat its employees like expendable assets, you're kidding yourself. Lastly, I dunno if you're being sarcastic, but actually France is a terrible place for new fashion trends and has been since the late 60s. A huge part of the large French fashion brands appeal is based on tradition and capturing that lost time / place when style was timeless (ie Chanel, Hermes). Most of the best young fashion designers leave France to London, NYC etc.
