Just so wild to me. I now work with people who make massive screw ups on the regular. In any case, is there a name for this sort of fantastical boot camp I described?

Most jobs I've ever worked the person training me didn't give a shit about the job (didn't blame them) and would fire hose me with an info dump on day 1 and by day 2 I was expected to understand it all.

Lmao and I bet those types of companies complain about turnover rates too

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

poor training with high expectations leads to new hires getting overwhelmed and burnout so they quit resulting in high turnover

high turnover leads to the employees tasked with training getting tired of repeatedly training people who don't stick around and as a result rationally deciding not to put much effort into the training

a self reinforcing cycle that routinely destroys companies that is obvious to any working person but incomprehensible to anyone with an MBA
