Advice to Management

You were very lucky to have a few very talented employees join the company at the beginning. They got their friends to work there too, and they built you a gold mine. However, they are slowly but surely leaving and if you don't make this place enjoyable to work at again, you will soon be left with a pile of technical debt and no one who knows what to do with it.
