Companies get mad when the employees look at their jobs the way execs look at their employees. Cue outrage. The only reason they mad is because they own the newspapers, too.
The audacity of these removed. I have a mercenary outlook on work too. If you love me, keep paying me good.
I'm fine with my reports taking better offers if they've got em. I don't get how these people get hired though. When I see these resumes that flip jobs every year, I immediately just kinda figure it's a waste to invest time in this person.
I look at it differently. It's my job to invest in, and create an environment that people don't want to ever leave. It's a two way street. If people are only hanging around for a year, something is up, and it probably ain't their fault.
