and the cycle will repeat. all those vacancies arising from the departure of disgruntled employees, being filled by new employees, disgruntled elsewhere, but soon to be disgruntled at the new shop, because the shop will never change.

Management must always believe themselves to be infallible, and beyond the reproach of the rank and file. Employees who vote with their feet are 'disloyal'. Why is that? The fundamental power imbalance in the employer/employee relationship.

You're always lucky if you can find somebody who worked for a place that's hiring and can find out their opinion. Places can't fill open positions for a reason. Sometimes it's because they just won't pay. But other times, it's because they've garnered a reputation as not being a particularly good place to work. They'll just end up lowering their standards until they attract somebody in their hiring range, and then (mis)treat them just as they did their predecessor, until they too leave.

and in their managerial meetings, they'll complain about the workers.
