I hate to go as cliche as “surprising absolutely no one,” but really, this is not a surprise.

    senior talent are the one’s making the most money, and costing the corporations the most year over year, the fact they’ve left willingly frees the corporation up from offering severance and unemployment benefits

      Yeah but they’re called talent for a reason. The senior talent are generally better than the juniors at what they do.

        sure, and the worth of “better” is determined by a company at any given time. any market, including the job market, is what people are willing to pay, and willing to let go of.

          Until they make the wrong call and it bites them on the ass.

      Senior talent tends to be “T people”, while juniors tend to be “I people”. Removing that T scaffolding, is how corporations end up like Boeing or the Titan.

      I’ve seen this before in the 90s. The companies that forced out the best, highest paid staff always suffered.
