100% untrue.

Let's say I have 50 employees working for $100,000 each.

Why would I not want to replace 25 of them that are willing to work for $50,000 each if they are producing anywhere close to the same quality.

In a case like this always open job listings are a warning to others.

Also there is something called market sampling. Where you put up these job openings and look at the quality of applicants in relation to the employees you already have to ensure you're on the right track internally.

‘Warning this company has management practices oriented around remaining solvent for the long term, rather than providing a sinecure for workers’?

		Warning: This company will replace your ass so far without regard to your actual abilities or their current profitability. Companies do not have human rights. They are a pleasant fiction the population allows because it's more effective than not having said rules. We the people can revoke those rules the moment the meta-idea of corporations no longer serve the public good. In the US at least we seemingly have come to believe the corporation is the ultimate organism and all rights should be sacrificed for its eternal cancerous growth.

		Not every company is a hungry startup trying to hustle their way to a billion dollars. Businesses also value stability, and stable labor is a big factor in pretty much every other field. You don't get stability by laying off workers every 2 years .

What if your $100,000 worker is actually more than twice as productive as your $50,000 worker?
