I call it the burn and churn model. Game studios and IT MSP's both engage in it habitually. The firm I work for has a 200% yearly rate of churn for IT managers. They expect 24/7/365 on call and pay below market. Really its just a place where people go until they find a new job.

I was hoping that the article would get into this kind of business model. There are also a lot of low-end jobs where a good employee is simply wasted because their business model relies on cheap workers who quit after a few months. There is a sub-economy where these people travel on a carousel of new jobs, never having to deal with boredom setting in. So there's always plenty more of them, and you never have to match their 401(k).

I wonder how AI will affect those business models? If you can on-board and find employees so quickly that you can sustain the burn-n-churn, then I think an AI would do it better and faster and not be fired either.

The AI will need to learn people skills if it has to do the job of an IT Manager.

Why? So it can be better than an IT Manager?
