Shorten the work week, give better pay per hour for when you're there, allow remote working wherever it makes sense, lots of other things to make an employee feel better about their work and also give them the opportunity to live life outside the job. Amazingly it's been found that companies that do things like that not only have better production results, they retain people longer. I know, who would have guessed?

If the bottom line is bigger than last quarter, yes. It's getting companies to try things that they see as riskier that's hard, when cutting costs is always easier and gets some results faster than any progressive ideas.
