Constantly getting rid of the bottom 10% of your workforce and then hiring new people is the best way to build a successful workforce in my experience. If you do it for 6-12 months you are gonna be left with only studs.


Jack Welch philosophy. There's always a bottom 10 %.

My company subscribes to this, which is why we have over 60 % turnover within the first 6 months and have a Glassdoor rating of 1.7 stars.

My first manager taught me how to do that and I have always done it since then, it REALLY works! I didn't know it came from Welch, I haven't read his book since HS(maybe college), but that is interesting and I may need to read it again and then check out his newer books.
