In my other post in this thread I mentioned mandatory OT as a potential block to recruiting. People today aren’t always motivated strictly by dollars and a 60 hour workweek is not attractive to many jobseekers.
The thing I also forgot to mention in that other post was the share of corporate revenue going to upper management instead of line employees and improving the company itself through infrastructure or thoughtful expansion.
