Yeah, unfortunately it’s a double edged sword and leadership plays a MASSIVE part in how this is managed since HR isn’t always the decision maker even if we need to deliver the news.
I used to flag issues and some managers were proactive - check-in calls, mentoring, mental health checks, etc. Other managers - didn’t care because they didn’t like the person, wanted them to quit anyways or flat out didn’t care because it didn’t generate revenue.
Personally - I’ve always acted to avoid it, but as I’m sure you know. Once someone is disengaged it’s hard to get them back, and when they have another offer it’s even harder to keep them. But also.. why all of a sudden does the company care that you’re resigning and NOW they want to pay you more?? Because your role is critical and they don’t have a replacement or it will impact revenue or they relied on you to plug all the gaps - and only now do they realize the value.
The unfortunate reality is the business acts to prevent it if they want to - but it’s not surprising when they don’t. Good culture treats everyone equally, but poor culture or management will apply rules and policies how they wish, where they wish and to who they wish.
Which is another reason why HR is an important puzzle piece! 🧩
I have seen this happen too often. By the time it reaches HR, it is already too late. I think most organisations react instead of preventing.
I go with this.
