Jobs, Employees and Resignations

well .. attrition is so commonplace these days in all companies .. and whenever i look at that next one who leaves .. i wonder whether it is just becoz there are so many opportunities available or there is some other reason too ??...just twenty years back ..leaving ur first or any job before at least 5 years would b considered a cardinal sin ... the issues and the outlook regarding, jobs , opportunities and manpower has changed.. thou i wonder how the rules regarding manpower at that time would have compared with the ones now ...
I mean . think of it guys .. the concept of manpower has changed so much ... today men are the biggest M for running a business . even bigger than Money and Material .. it s the age of paying hefty salaries to people .. but the fact still remains ... that be it a sales executive or a worker in a mfg. unit , a deskjob emplyee or a software executive ... they are still exploited .. all of them in a bigg way in most companies of the world .. and no i m not being disillusioned ...it s very true .. while we think that . so what if i put in extra hrs .. i m being paid so much ... the truth is that .. anyways the company pays you less than 20% of what u r worth .. they have to .. else how would they make those hefty profits .. most Indian companies i believe are very bureaucratuc .. and do not really understnd what investing into an employee for life means.. they are all very .. shortsighted in their outlook .. they want to get the maximum out of an employee while he s there .. coz they blv that he d surely jump out of the orgn very soon ... and thus companies create an envt, where even a person who s wlling to stay on for a longer term .. and wants to learn and move in a planned manner gets stuck in this cat and mouse game .....none of the orgns in india are good learning or breeding grounds for employees.. the good ole theory abt .. most learning happeneing at work s gone down the wire....orgns need to realise that like ,, money ..and other resources or like the organisation itself .. each and every employee is a long term asset and he needs to be nurtured and taken care of .. so that he stays on in the orgn for a longer time ...i mean we all know the perspective that the orgn . cannnot do anything since the employees leave so early ... well to give a new picture .. the orgns are just as indifferent ..and it would take a change of outlook to improve this situation ..

I feel that we've come to a point that no matter what the organisation does, there is no "Loyalty" factor anymore. "Money" is the KEY driver.
i Hatw the way everyhting works now, and i feel like im still in the old school of thought.

old school of thought = thought of the old times, not moving on, the way things used to work before.
