Why would you do this given the expected average tenure is probably like 18 months to 2 years?

They think everyone wants to work for ping pong. It’s delusional. All it takes is one bad decision to send everyone running. Leaders are so high on their own egos that they think no one would ever want to leave, but we do.
The issue I see is lots of companies put strategy into hiring from colleges and then are left with the low performers after 3-5 years. A good company will mix college recruiting with job fairs and LinkedIn/indeed ads to get good candidates and won’t pretend to be “a family” or enter cult phrase to try to attract talent.
