It's actually terrible business because constantly having to hire, train, and ramp up new engineers takes up so much more time than retaining staff would. But no one wants to hear that when X needs to be released by Y and we can make that happen if our engs just work a little harder/longer.

And who has to go through all that?

The managers.

Trust me, we don't want it any more than the ICs do. But senior/executive management doesn't feel the pain and therefore doesn't care.
