21. Has any past employers written you out a check for $10k as a "parting gift"?
Question sounds like someone paid me to leave their company – but actually it was Python. After it was announced I was leaving I had finished a presentation on a 5 years business plan as to how I felt the company should progress for the future. The owner afterwards I felt seemed so impressed that when I was leaving I was handed an envelop with a check in it for 10k$ (that cleared).
I don’t recommend this for every company but the principle was there, that you showed appreciation to your employee’s – giving them respect and self value – in return they will have an inner drive to help the company succeed whether it is a Christmas bonus or birthday gift to a call thanking them for their work. People do what they love to do – make the work environment something they regret and you have droids working rather than an extended team willing to put in extra hours for the success of the organization.
