You can't Git clone a team

I agree but it was always like that. Also there isn't any incentive anymore in growing juniors if they're going to immediately take the next better offer that comes around when they know enough, and you have such thing being offered on a daily basis (at least until a couple years ago).

I would love to work on low-level, systems stuff (anything as close to the hardware as possible), that's even my education and area of expertise. BUT SaaS companies in reality:

- pay better

- have lower costs

- are way easier

- don't have that many (or any at all) geographical restrictions (e.g. importing hardware prototypes).

People follows the money.

okay. Promote them with proper pay then. This HR debacle of putting more budget into hiring over retaining is entierly self-inflicted.

Well that love sounds more like a low priority whimsy in that case. I don't think tech workers of all people are ones who ever complain about low compensation. Unless you work in games, I suppose.
