    Are you retaining the wrong people?

    CFO magazine, of all places, telling us not to trust HR:

    Not only is employee engagement very expensive, but “how do you know you’re not satisfying a lot of people you really wish weren’t there”

    The problem, in a nutshell, is that HR works hard to retain people.

      HR, by and large, works to make management happy.

      I’ve worked at places (two of them that were around 40 people and had about 30% turnover per year) where retention was hardly a priority, because it wasn’t one for management either.
