There are many nowadays. At the root of the problems you have leadership who are very disconnected from reality, particularly in the hiring and retention areas, but also in the technology aspect.
GoSecure used to offer some of the best salaries in the industry. However, since gaining a CFO who doesn't appear to know what the job entails, our ability to hire and retain staff has tanked. Yes, some of it is due to the pandemic making hiring overall a little more difficult. But a lot of it is due to the fact that a non-technical person, who does not understand the industry and its trends, still believes $50,000/year is enough to hire competent workers and retain people who have been in the same role, and rocking it, for years. The amount of work to do at GoSecure has increased dramatically across most departments, whereas the amount of people to support the work has not increased appropriately. People are terribly burnt out. Every single one of the technical people I have talked to in the past couple of months has indicated they are dissatisfied and considering looking for employment elsewhere. There are other issues but I will not be discussing them here. These are the main ones to be aware of: weak salaries, overtime expected and never compensated, no approval for necessary tools and raises, unequal pay for the same or harder work, little or no training opportunities, and overworked staff.
