Depends on the size of the company. If a company has 3000 employees in a job family, and 1% leave per year (due to retirement, personal life reasons, etc.), they need to hire more than a person every single working day just to keep the head count.
That’s fair enough, they are terrible for a lot of reasons. I just wouldn’t take this as cause for particular alarm. The general and all-pervading unease of being a cog in a massive unconscious profit-maximizing metabeing is a separate but very good reason to seek a livelihood elsewhere.
Companies that hire non-stop are shitholes and terrible employers.
I double down on my statement.

If a company has 3000 employees it needs to be broken up into smaller operating units.
A company like that will also have zero issue shrugging you off with 500 others without a care because they want to “pivot to AI” or some bullshit.
