Good point!

Just thought of another aspect that is purly based on economic scales.

I am not sure how many employees ERAC currently has. But lets just assume for this situation that it is in the 5,000 range. If retention is on average 65% that means that in a given year you are loosing roughly 1,750 or 145.83 employees each month. So these recruiters and HR directors for other companaies have to be aware of this and see dozens of exERAC employees resumés coming accross thier desks.

With that logic it would mean less to see ERAC on a resumé because they see so many that it isn't an impressive selling point anymore.

I think, once upon a time, it might have been lucrative, but it is almost like seeing WalMart, Starbucks, or (insert large companies name here) on a resumé.
