    Definitely - hiring isn’t easy.

    But you’ll never get value for money from engineers who don’t care, and you have a 0% chance of a cheap contractor caring.

    Again - I don’t blame them. They shouldn’t care. The company clearly doesn’t respect them.

    But it’s a false economy.

      True. Some people aren’t paid enough to care 👍

      But it’s a false economy.

      Is that a typo or a term I don’t know?

        Not a typo - a false economy is a decision that saves money in the short term but wastes more than it saves in the long term.
