So you're saying you can get free training then just leave for a real paying company eh
I imagine they have some absurd contract that says they can't leave for 89 years or whatever
And I'd like to see that contract hold up in court lol
The trick to exploiting people is keeping them in fear and ignorance.
And people wonder why companies dont train undergrads anymore
Oh, no, educated workers who don't want to be taken advantage of and know their worth, maybe companies should value their employees if you want company loyalty.
Oh no, job providers who don't want to be taken advantage of and know their worth, maybe people should value their job providers if you want their loyalty.
spoiler
My time on Lemmy (and Reddit before) ironically make me appreciate communism less and lessWon't someone think of the Job providers?! How will they ever afford their third yacht. Damn communists.
^^^this is you^^^^
Lmao alright bud go fire all your employees and see how you do. Then you will understand who needs to be loyal to who.
I code one feature for my job in a sprint and it becomes a value generator for a decade, making the companies hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.
Software developers create value out of thin air for companies, value that management and leadership is unable to generate.
There are some court cases going on right now about this type of thing. Generally, the payback is only allowed to be for the real cost of training, and only for a few years. So that 60k salary for 3 years is also the right amount to make you worth 150k anywhere else.
