A HR question I really want to understand. ISRS HR quoted a podcast "The not so great resignation" saying 70% regret leaving and many want to go back to old employer. If this really the case the employee likely left due to higher pay at the new company. If they want to boomerang back they will likely come back at even a higher rate than they left the new company for. So getting double raise when they boomeranged. Isn't it unbeneficial, why not just give employee a 7% raise in the first place?

In my own limited experiences, HR departments tend to think they are being strategic, but usually their strategies only reflect how they *hope/believe* things should work, rather than taking human behavior and psychology into account. This is what leads to so many seemingly short-sighted actions that end up costing more money (and wasted time) in the medium and long-term.
