I suppose it’s what you are used to. A company that I worked with had under 100 staff, very profitable but had a staff turnover of about 10% per year.

People joined, some stayed, some left and it was fine.

Perhaps as the departures were staff decisions not some faceless corporate executive, dropping X% cos that’s what he thinks would please the markets or his boss. Or the department is making profits but as much as his MBA says that’s sufficient. That’s the really depressing and infuriating aspect.

If it's not part time work, 10% yearly turnover is awful for anything that isn't a tiny startup.

>People joined, some stayed, some left and it was fine.

For who? It's always a shame how we underplay the human element in these stories.
