I learned a tremendous amount from a few people who had been at my last job for 30+ years. Also there was a library of forgotten knowledge in old reports they pointed me to, that none of the co-workers who were there less than 10 years knew about. Tapping into these resources allowed me to excel and be relied upon after only two years on the job.



As employees change jobs more frequently, will the development of this extreme expertise diminish and cause inefficiencies due to constant relearning and retraining?



My experience is it is happening already and in the engineering field I'm in, it is driving up costs due to rework and mistakes. But is my experience right?

  • You probably want to specify the profession you are talking about. B/c there are professions where 30+ years of working for the same employer in the same position would translate to "good luck finding a new job if you're fired (or want to quit/move)". In addition to that I suspect that if there is some library of forgotten knowledge only known by people who worked 10+ years then your company might have a huge issue with training new people and documenting such stuff.
