It's sort of a strange approach, because this will leave you with the workers who can't find employment elsewhere.
Exactly...they won't be picky about raises or working conditions.
By the time that negative effect kicks in, the execs already cashed in their bonuses and are on their way out of the sinking ship
Executives do not see workers as people with skillsets. They're numbers on a spreadsheet. And having ten highly paid workers quit "voluntarily" makes the numbers do good things.
Actually, they're not even numbers on a spreadsheet. They're data points in a graph. Executives don't have time to understand numbers, let alone people.
Ain't that the truth. My company is thinking about replacing all of their technical staff with AI. That's going to be utterly hilarious to watch from the sidelines.
People exaggerate this claim. Amazon already accounted for some talent leaving and the benefits obviously outweighs the con. There is nothing strange.
This implies a level of intelligence they've never previously demonstrated.
