Nothing new about that. Study after study shows that employers suffer in the long run when they allow bad bosses to run rampant in their organizations.
So why don't employers do something about it when bad bosses cause good employees to leave? Because the cause-and-effect relationship is indirect—HR doesn't link it's hiring costs to the behavior of bosses who caused the vacancies.
