These kind of employees aren't respected so nobody worth a damn would care what they had to say anyway if they were going to try and talk shite about me.

Come on man. These aren’t formal situations where I’m emailing or talking with HR people.

This would be casual conversations over drinks, on a golf course, or with a former manager, etc while at lunch. Good luck to some asshat trying to sue in a situation like that.

It's happened before and will continue to happen in the future. Talk to any employment lawyer.

Maybe in a smaller market where jobs are tight they mean a lot.

Right now in this economy and in a large market, most companies want the talent no matter how it comes.

Yes, for our industry we offer more than a lot of companies like us. We also have a much better culture that our competitors.

Agreed. In our case we see people that are taking lateral moves.

That’s what you think. If companies are desperate then they will take whatever they can get. If companies are selective (like us) then we’re looking for stability rather than one and done.

Are your competitors well staffed? Why don’t you try to poach some of those baws?

is it really lateral if they’re getting a ~10% raise?

Right to work state, I assume? That seems like yall dropped the ball during the hiring process. He still doesn't owe anyone anything.

I didn't say his reputation wouldn't be fricked. I'm saying he doesn't owe anyone anything. As long as he knows he is burning bridges, that's on him.

I hear that a lot... has it ever actually happened? How'd the suit turn out?

Kind of reminds me of those ads where they tiptoe awkwardly around saying "Super Bowl." When it comes to "some guy said this thing" lawsuits, "it's 100% true" is almost always an absolute defense.

And if you reasonably believe that what you're saying is truthful, you would win the lawsuit. It's called a qualified privilege, dumbass.

We don’t accept 2 weeks notice anymore. Their resignation becomes effective immediately and they are escorted out. We do pay them for the next two weeks.



I have zero issue with this, but what I was saying is if a job wants me to quit tomorrow, I wouldn't do that.
