Re: "top business and technology professionals"
If they decide to come back at all, despite the inducement.
The wayback machine doesn't seem to find it, but from memory.
B**land HR - We need terminations, let loose the P45's.
Sometime later....
Whaddya mean you terminated our chief developer & architect, the guy that's got everything we have planned now & our road map for the next 4 years, had him escorted off the premises within 30 seconds of the notice instead of the cleaner with the same name.
Cue lots of phone calls to the guy with a new better paid job (Who was snatched up very quickly & unsurprisingly) including a grovelling one from the CEO.
I don't recall if the guy extremely pissed at the manner of his termination came back or not.
