"Nothing wrong with the other answers, but here's a ""trick"" to hopefully make it totally transparent.   Imagine that you're not the one implementing this business plan, but someone else is.  Let's call this other person your asset manager.  So on the first day, you give your asset manager $9.  He takes this and generates $1 profit from it, recovering the $9 which he then reinvests to generate $1 profit every day.  From your perspective, you just gave him $9.  At the end of the year, he gives you $365 in addition to your original investment of $9 (in real life he'd take the fees of course, or perhaps he's been lending out the money he's been accumulating and taking the interest from that as pay for his services).  So your return on investment is 365 / 9 * 100 % > 4000 %, as claimed by your source."

The stodgy old management woke up and realized that china is getting really good at producing their own industrial equipment now. They buy one used piece of equipment and knock it off, sell it for pennies on the dollar.  If they don’t compete on better quality for only a little more money they are finished.

It was literally run by college kids. It was closest to the college dorms to walk so every employee including the managers were college age kids. They didn't give a fuck. Got comped a meal and free drinks when there was a hair in our food. Thing was, it used to be good. However, incidents like the hair in the food happened all the time. Everyone in town knew to avoid it.
"I make great money (especially for being a new college grad), have a great work life balance (if you spend much more than 8 or 9 hours at work you get some weird looks and maybe a sit down  to discuss why you're working so much), but I don't have a nap room or a coffee bar or a dry cleaner at work.   You can keep your ""culture"". I'll take my free time."
The Scale Manager electronic scale reducer utilizes a scope of electronic frequencies to evacuate and wipe out lime scale stores. In outrageous hard water establishment ranges, this will drag out water warmer life and continue plumbing lines/apparatuses clean with no support by any stretch of the imagination. electronic scale reducer treats hard water without the need of water conditioner framework, chemicals or salt added substances. This gives the water the capacity to both avoid scale develop and break up existing scale development it comes into contact with.
'Seems to me that a private business ought to have the right to do exactly this and more if they wish.  They do not owe anyone a job, nor is the applicant obligated to work there.  If they wish to make religious adherence, color, gender, sexuality, attractiveness, or whatever a condition of employment, they should be free to do so.  HOWEVER, if they do:  a) They should never be eligible for any tax funded business, such as govement contracts.  b) They should not be entitled to special state privileges such as incorporation.  Before any of you RedditLeft halfwits start bloviating about how very intolerant this is, let me point out that we are to be equal before *our goverment* not in our private lives.  No individual's freedoms are more valid or important than another's.  The rights of, say, a woman or person of color or gay person, cannot be more important than the rights of, say, a devoutly religious person that wants - as in this case- to fill their company with like minded people.  The right of association is fundamental in a free society.  Forcing one person to hire someone against their will is flatly immoral.  Let the whiny left begin their foolishness ...
I probably know more about both business and drugs than you'd assume.   But there are a lot of jobs where it's not a big deal. I understand that most companies who drug test do so for liability, because their insurance requires it when workplace injuries are reported, and that they have to cover their asses so that the insurance wil pay out.   And operating machinery, equipment, etc while high is the same as doing so while drunk or otherwise impaired. But we don't keep employees from drinking on weekends. And current drug test policies don't do much to keep employees from popping pills or doing meth on weekends either, so they're weeding out a lot of pot smokers while still hiring people who use harder drugs.  I've worked at one job that was all about mid-week drug tests to screen out marijuana users, but where people were pretty open about abusing prescription pills and other drugs.  I've worked in a law office where cocaine and adderall were openly abused, with higher-level associates offering to hook me up if I needed a source for either. And I've worked in sales positions where those same drugs were pretty openly used and talked about.   And yes, plenty of corporate cokeheads and pill poppers would look down on pot smokers too, and try to tell you that their drug of choice made them more productive.
me personally, i couldnt care less about what people do, but when you see reports where drug rehab, for a family member that is not hired by the company, cost a company 1/4 mil, thats something to consider as a business owner. so yeah, the employee may not have a problem, but if its permissible in their lifestyle, and your company covers other people not hired by the company, theres a huge loss potential that the company can do nothing about, other than utterly ban such culture from the work place.
""Hi Steve! I'm Sophie from Sincerely Security. It's nice to meet you in-person!"" I will never forget the look on his face… Pure gold. ""Who?.... Wait, what? How? How did you get in here?!"" We stayed in his office and talked for a long time. I went over exactly the steps that could have prevented my success. First of all, the desire to help others is human and natural. We don't want to discourage that. Second, I'm sure they did have some sort of policy that required visitors to check in showing government issued identification, but they weren't following it. We also need to post by every computer, phone and door: ""TRUST, BUT VERIFY."" An employee who does their homework can ruin my day. Third, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Is your company going to hire the team who designed Google's offices? Magic 8 ball says no. Lastly, the team who took me to the second location should have found someone else to escort me through the building. I've been doing this job for a couple years now, and almost every job is a variant of this story. Very rarely do I go through an entire assessment without some sort of social engineering. There are ways to protect yourself and your company from attacks like this. I think it starts by sharing stories like these, and educating and empowering each other to be vigilant."
The author could have done a much better job of explaining it.  Maybe this will help:  * Thanks to Hillary (and Bill) Clinton, it is hard as fuck for companies to get visa sponsorship and hire foreign workers  * Because of this, foreigners have a much tougher time finding jobs - and employers can pay them less - BUT, they'll be loyal as hell to the company because job searches are so difficult  * *BUT, in order to GET that visa sponsor privilege*, employers have to demonstrate that they can't find any talent in the US  * Company posts job with super-high qualifications for laughable pay  * (*Imagine...*) the only people that apply:  the bottom of the barrel, underqualified people, and maybe one desperate candidate  * Employer complains to the government that there's not talent in the US to fill their job  * ...and gets allocation for their visa sponsorship  **tl;dr** - the 'skill gap' is a slimy game
"Fuck exempt salary positions.  The necessary reform is overtime for anyone who isn't a partial owner.  If you own a company and want to work a 100 hour week, fine.  But you cannot hire an ""exempt"" employee and work them 100 hours because of some classification.  Any non-owner should get overtime.  That would fix the massive unemployment/underemployment problem straight away.  If businesses can't force people to work two jobs for the pay of one, they'll have no choice but to hire more people.  The other problem is unpaid internships.  If someone works, they get minimum wage.  Probably more.  Remember, people fought and died for 40 hour weeks and fair labor laws.  Asshole corporations have fought to deny this.  I'm surprised they haven't tried to repeal child labor laws yet.  Most of them would be happy with ten year-olds working ten hour days for nothing."
"Yes they were quite shady and terrible on many fronts. They hired 40-50 yr old business solution guys and 1/3rd of new hires quit within 6 months. Wowza.  Didn't know about hackathons and ""startup weekends"" having prowling companies, makes sense though... Was never interested in such things. Also I am female so I kind of fear being  physically in places with disproportionate gender ratios/where I stand out... But that's probably stupid in a professional setting?"
redethmoid, excellent questions and I appreciate that.    The fact is that we do need employees in the workforce in all sectors, blue collar/white collar.  The problem is the shift in the economy and how companies are responding to it.  The corp execs only look at the bottom line especially when they are a public company(they have to impress wall street as their first priority).  So what happens when profits and growth dip?  They immediately start looking for ways to cut the budget and it's usually by firing/lay offs and/or offshore outsourcing.  It's happening daily unfortunately.    If you live in the U.S., there's no reason to be living in poverty. People are dying to get in this country because of the freedom and opportunities we have.  It's all about mindset and how you view the world.    Here's my advice. I don't know you or your background but I can feel the frustration and where your mindset is.  First, remove the negative self talk from your language.  Saying that you're broke and have no money will force the universe to leave you in that state.  Start reading books on how to improve yourself first.  Change starts with us, not outside forces.  This is real shit my friend, not just some hype talk.    Next, if you need a rat race job to make ends meet, then do it even if you have a college degree.  Drop the ego and do what you gotta do.    Find something that inspires you and you love to do and figure out how to make cash doing it.  There are so many options out there, you just have to be willing to find them and open up your mind.    I'll leave you with that for now. If you'd like to connect on social media and learn more about this topic, let me know and I'll give you my details.    Have an awesome day!  William
"&gt;I've found most of my personal success looking for work by way of the burgeoning technical recruiter industry - they know a bit more than an HR 'bot', either mechanical or human (haha), about the reality of technical requirements for a job and are able to find you if you just know where to place yourself.  Yes, that is another way ""around"" the HR bot-ery.  But it tends to be expensive (granted the ""company"" doing the hiring does the paying, but I can guarantee you that the cost inevitably comes OUT of the possible salary/benefits of the hiree).  &gt;Getting solicited for a job by way of your LinkedIn profile is a much easier way of finding work than the futile carpet-bombing of large corporate HR machines, no doubt.  Yes, alas... that seems to be about the only way that most people (including ironically enough college grads with HR &amp; MBA degrees) seem to think about jobs: the ""carpet bombing"" of HR departments combined with the continual scanning of ""jobs"" listings.  I want to weep every time some college grad tells me they were ""taught"" to use Monster.com (et al) as a *primary* means of obtaining a position.  I mean seriously, USE those research and networking skills that you claim to have to FIND a company that you WANT to work for, and then find a way to get a position in that company.  It is an ACTIVE thing, not a ""passive"" one.  People who do that tend to actually GET (one of the) jobs they want, rather than being ""stuck"" in something where... well, they were the first ones to make an offer..."
&gt; Cisco, which has acquired more than 170 companies, decided it was more efficient — and more economical — to hire its own full-time bankers rather than pay millions of dollars in fees each time it struck a deal.  &gt; “Our heritage has been embracing M.&amp;A. as a way to enter new markets,” said Hilton Romanski, Cisco’s head of corporate development, who started his career as a JPMorgan banker. “It makes sense to build a relatively scaled effort around M.&amp;A. with teams and talent that understand the market.”  &gt; Facebook has hired bankers away from Credit Suisse and Jefferies, among other companies, and gives them more responsibility than they would have at a bank. “They can run a deal from beginning to end,” Mr. Zoufonoun said. “As an analyst, they were doing one part of a pitch deck.”  &gt; At Google, Mr. Harrison has an employee looking after the deal needs of each of the company’s 12 product areas, like ads, YouTube and search. That person goes to all meetings held by the senior members of that group, staying attuned to possible acquisition needs.  &gt; But the hours are not necessarily any better than on Wall Street, said Mr. Zoufonoun, who stayed up several nights in a row working to close the WhatsApp deal and fell asleep at the office the day it was announced.
"&gt; Another way of looking at it: most people think that the way to promote hiring women is to make them better potential employees, but another way to do it is to make men worse potential employees (by giving them the same time off).  Nothing more than lowering the bar.  Just like all the misinformation thrown around about the ""assault on women"" and the fictitious ""pay gap"", a majority of women *choose* to be the family member that takes time off from work.  Making men ""worse potential employees"" doesn't change much since women will still choose to take the time off.  As a result, you have *two* people not showing up for work, as opposed to just one."
&gt; I know the last one was due to cocaine, which really doesn't make sense to me but it's a barrier that the company is not getting rid of because if you are not able to get clean even just long enough to get hired there is a good chance of other issues as an employee  Yup.  I was friendly with a lady at a fortune 500 who ran drugs tests.  She said if you can't not do cocaine for 3 days before the test you have a problem.  At this company they didn't care about pot.  It was just cocaine/meth, etc.
&gt;I'm always amazed when people come to the defense of large corporations.  Here's the thing, Target hires employees, if Target were to shut down tomorrow (yes, I know it won't) then all of the people making their living through Target would be screwed. That's why I'm surprised there is so much hate directed at corporations. Sure, they do some nasty things, sure they're trying to make the largest profit possible, but they still pay thousands of peoples' wages, and if anything severely hurts Target as a corporation, those people are the ones will be affected the most.
The key to getting a job in college and for the rest of your life is networking and knowing exactly where you want to work not a business card.  During a career fair, recruiters get flocked hundreds of students who don't know shit about the company or industry.  All you need to do is research the company and figure out what makes it better than it's competitors. Then when you talk to a recruiter at the fair, be sure to slip it into the conversation.  Recruiters are looking for people who fit the companies culture. Make sure you structure your elevator pitch in a way that aligns with it perfectly.  If you do these things, I guarantee you will get an interview assuming you have the minimum GPA
The profit maximising level of employment: Now we consider how many people a business might decide to employ. The profit maximising level of employment occurs when a firm hires workers up to the point where the marginal cost of employing an extra worker equals the marginal revenue product of labour. I.e. MCL = MRPL.  This is shown in the labour demand diagram shown below.  http://tutor2u.net/economics/revision-notes/a2-micro-demand-for-labour.html  So the cost of each additional unit of labor is 8 (MCL = 8) as the wage is 16/hour and Q = 2*L in the short run. Find the right quantity produced by taking dP/dQ of your original inverse demand curve, which will give you the marginal revenue of each product. Set it equal to 8 and solve for q.
From what I’ve seen across a multitude of firms, the gaps start at recruiting (outsourced to a person with a BA from an unknown foreign school and no experience for $5000/yr) and propagate throughout an organization because accurate metrics for measuring IT talent are few and far between.   They don’t realize their ship is sinking until 90% of their costs are maintaining inflexible legacy applications that aren’t even remotely functioning in alignment with their digital strategy anymore, and then they hire Wipro or Infosys or whomever else to come fix it.. and then, when it becomes an unfixable clusterfuck of nonsense, they pay someone else for managed services until, like, I don’t know, the business goes under or the building explodes when the IBM 7070 mainframe they’re still using catches fire. It’s truly a fascinating cycle.
He's made a point for *his* line of work, not mine. My dad started my company and turned it into a one man, 40 hour a week, six figure operation before I took over. The only reason I want to hire is that I see an opportunity for expansion. I'll still work just as much.
&gt; The business pretty clearly laid out what it expects out of its employees, and what it expects is illegal.  That isn't what I got from the article at all.  Their *sales* practices are publicly Christian, but not their hiring practices.  All of the illegal things they did with regard to hiring this applicant were done in private, during the interview process.
"I'm constantly terrified of the monthly jobs report, and yet what's funny is I work for an office in New York City (which I won't name for anonymity reasons), and we're always hiring people. Every week, it seems, we get a ""Please welcome our newest employee""  email. I should be happy but I see what's really going on in the country and the world and I think ""....this is going to end badly for this company!"" :("
I listened to this the same day I read an article about american companies having trouble hiring workers. In Germany they train workers via internships and technical schools. In the US the students pay too much for useless degrees. Trump is losing his shit trying to force people to mine coal when an answer (not the answer) is right there. FFS.
&gt;Starting in 2014, the hiring of a company's 50th worker will cost an extra $40,000 per year.  Assuming 19 employees *do not have qualifying coverage* (FTA the first 30 are exempt)  &gt;This is one reason the unemployment rate is still above 8 percent three years after the end of the recession. Employers plan ahead.  Reaching.   &gt;$750 a year, is too small relative to the cost of health care coverage -- about $5,500 a year. Because insurance companies are required to take all applicants, healthy people (especially the young) would be wise to pay the penalty rather than buy the insurance. This makes the pool of insured individuals sicker and more costly, on average, and their premiums will higher. With higher premiums, more people will choose to pay the penalty, and a downward spiral will unfold.  An assumption that no healthy person wants to pay for insurance means the whole system will fall apart?  A lot of broad assumptions, although it is an OpEd.
that's not a huge surprise-   it boils down to an increased demand for people who can be flexible in their thinking.  Business is becoming much more dynamic, procedures change, technology changes, everything changes from week to week if not day to day.  If you can't roll with the punches then you're going to have a hard time.    Tech firms will hire people who don't specialize in a particular programming language, what they expect is for you to be able to think your way through.
And more than that it would encourage people to invest in companies for the long term, allowing Executives and CEO's and such the breathing space to make a tough decision that's bad in the short term but good in the long term...  Rather than hiring a psychopath CEO that's only trying to boost short term stock value for his own bonus/salary
Good number of reviews (&gt;10,000) compared to a study of 100 though it isnt normalized or in an actual study format. The thing to note is that if you compare the types of employees to another tech company like lets say Google/Alphabet or Facebook you have a different distribution in the type of people recruited and that might effect their experience as well as severely skew the sample. Amazon does a lot of retail, support and call centers as compared to a lot of engineers with a more educated background. Both are people but theres definitely a difference in the type of person as well as their temperament you get if you go to lets say an urban wal-mart as compared to an Alphabet or Facebook engineer.
