How much are they paying the CEO?
Don’t they consider their replacement costs in the hundreds of millions.
MBA management types strive to convince everyone they are irreplaceable.
Engineers proudly talk about how they are easily replaceable.
Guess who gets shit on?
It is actually good that losing engineering talent be extremely painful for a company. This helps prevent the slow loss of engineering culture like what happened at Boeing.
