Way back before Scott Adams went completely off the deep end I had a tin of Dilbert branded mints called Encourage Mints. This is literally a joke from the hackiest office comic ever yet some manager(s) still thought it was good idea. WTF does business school teach?
Company making millions due to its workers efforts, while rewarding them with practically nothing? Sounds like business school is teaching capitalism perfectly.
They aren't teaching psychology in them. Stupid "gifts" like these are a net negative. You are so much better off giving nothing than a crappy gift.
I disagree. A higher turnover rate means paying the new guy less money. You’ll see this more often when they want to annoy people into quitting so they don’t need to pay unemployment.
They’re using the psychology correctly. It’s just awful for people as a whole. But it can temporarily make their books look good (high sales, low expenses) and justify bigger bonuses for the board.
Generally the people that can leave of their own will are the people you don't want to leave though. You might save 20% or more on salary, but you also loosing far more in productivity.
High turnover only works when it doesn't take long for employees to reach a productive level. Now that the market is tightened and there isn't free money everywhere, companies that survived despite turnover are going to struggle as that cost becomes more obvious.
what a disappointMINT.
This is a very underrated comMINT!
They should just attach a turbine to Karl Marx's coffin .... his spinning could probably supply enough power for all of Western Europe.
As far as I can tell, business school teaches people how to enthusiastically participate in the capitalist circlejerk. That’s kinda it.
