The question is why are they leaving after 24 months? Perhaps the company is lacking a clear path for development in terms of responsibility, impact, and renumeration. Not adequately training because they are expected to leave after 24 months is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

It's mostly because it is taboo to give a pay rise above 15% to retain someone (unless promoting) but most companies are willing to spend more than that difference on new hires to match the market rate.
I am sure there is some sort of game psychology explanation on HR's behaviour and equally, from an employee perspective, the cost/inertia of following through with a job change will probably weight in HR's favor.

My company has paid double digit raises regularly. I’ve still seen people leave for internal transfers because they think the grass is greener.
Money is why a lot of young devs quit, but it’s not the only reason.

You shouldn't dox yourself by answering this, but I sure wish you could tell us which company is giving double digit raises every year... I'm over here languishing at less than 2% at best, having to leave every year or so just to get the necessary bump.
