    It just won’t affect the company whatsoever.

    When does a company decide to recruit? It’s when current employees can’t handle the workload and/or move projects ahead on schedule.

    Not being recruited increases the hiring cycle time and means the development falls further behind schedule.

    It’s not nothing.

      When does a company decide to recruit?

      1. New contract
      2. Constantly to backfill

      If anyone will take the job, there is zero difference to them. Humans are not statistically morale enough to hinder them more than paying well.

        The sooner they hire someone the less time they spend understaffed and the more they have to pay whoever the hire. It’s not a huge difference but it is also not zero.
