Why would the company rather spend more money to recruit a new employee than give the old one a raise?

In my opinion, the boss would rather hire new employees for the following reasons:

First of all, the reason why the boss recruits new employees

1, think that new employees have training value. New employees are young, highly educated, professional counterparts, and just entered the workplace. After being recruited into the company, they are generally full of curiosity, freshness, willingness to learn and practice, passion for work, strong plasticity and training value. After training, it can become the technical backbone of the company's business and be used by the company, which is very beneficial to promoting the company's development.

2. Think that new employees are beneficial to the long-term development of the company. New employees are young and promising, full of vitality and development potential, which can add vitality to the company; New employees have strong acceptance and new ideas, and can become the company's reserve talents; Due to the lack of work experience, new employees generally have low requirements for salary and treatment, which can reduce some labor costs for the company.

3, think that new employees can maintain the continuity of work. Recruiting new employees can make the age of employees in the company form a ladder, and it can also make the business technicians in the company form a ladder. After training and use, it can gradually improve the working ability, maintain the continuity of work and ensure the smooth progress of the company's main business.

Secondly, the reason why the boss is unwilling to give the old employees a raise.

1, think that old employees have no development potential. Old employees have worked in the company for a long time. Although they are skilled and experienced, after a long time, their thoughts have solidified, their pioneering spirit has weakened, they are easy to satisfy the status quo, do not make progress, and feel that they have no development potential, as long as their wages remain unchanged.

I don't think it can motivate the old employees. If a salary increase is given to an old employee, a person will increase the labor cost; Second, I think it is natural that old employees will rely on the old to sell the old; Third, the old employees think that they have strong ability and good technology, and they can't play an incentive role and can't achieve the effect of mobilizing work enthusiasm.

Finally, it is considered that old employees are potential elimination targets. Most of the old employees are older, and the boss thinks that they have neither training value nor use value, and they will all face the alternation of old and new. They are the targets that the boss plans to eliminate and will be replaced by new employees sooner or later. Therefore, it is impossible to give them a raise.
