Pros

Some good engineers, but mostly those I know are leaving for a better life and a better salary.

Cons

Bad management. Bad new engineers with huge pay.

Advice to Management

Increase pay for senior engineers who spent years learning all the internal tools.

New engineers will take 2-3 years to learn them. If all experienced engineers leave, it would be tough, wouldn't it?
