Let’s say staff got an offer from a competing B4 to jump ship moving up in comp and title. Can they eventually boomerang back to your teams? If so, how would you feel about this?

I’d venture to guess plenty of partners made jumps for raises / promotions, not everyone is home grown, would be kind of hypocritical to hold it against someone if you made the same decisions.

Yes. It’s business. If they are good workers, you’ll want them back. They may not like B4 as much as they like you. It’s a different culture. But, the staff would be crazy not to take the raise, experience and name in resume.

Depends on whether they left on good terms and if level of trust remains unchanged. I would be weary of boomerangs unless there is strong level of trust.

Is it naive to hope that there could be a job out there that I actually LIKE doing as opposed to just forcing myself to do it for the paycheck?
