But the real thing is that some dollars can move mountains and offer more value to the testers and more if the offer has more challenges and learnings for the people.
Some companies are now worry in this issue, because they invest a lot of time, money and blod to let the testers understand the business flow, the technical issues, and the processes, and when finally this is done, the tester finds a better job position outside the company and everything is a waste of time, and falls apart.
