@experquisite It’s not true - it’s about accessing experience and skills not IP. If your IP is so thin someone can replicate it 2 months later your moat is inconsequenrjal anyway
OpenAI / Anthropic scaling up in London is wonderful for the UK. But we should make notice periods and non-competes above 60 days invalid and illegal. This will increase competitiveness for UK-based talent, increase pay & taxes and give UK startups better access to talent.
It’s not self-serving, it’s aligned with growth. In Silicon Valley you retain the best talent by paying them well and treating them the best not by locking them into long notice periods. Notice periods protect incumbents who are not providing the best opportunity for their people and not aligned with being the best place in the world to build ai companies.
This is not true - London is the best city in the world and filled with incredible talent. If the quant funds and their employees have stayed already with the tax dislocation (pay more taxes here than if you move to beautiful Milan) this will not be the change that will tip them over. If anything it will make it more attractive for the best people to be here in a more competitive labor market
@PriceIndex This has long been one of the superpowers of Silicon Valley. Compete for talent by giving them the best experience and opportunity not because you’ve locked them in under contractural terms…
I agree to that in general of course but in reality this hurts young people the most. They don’t have leverage or experience when accepting their early career high salary jobs. So they unknowingly commit themselves to long notice periods which then make it much harder for them later to change roles into what could be an even more lucrative job. For growing companies in the Uk and Europe it is the worst when such a large section of talented employees can’t start working for you for six months or even a year in some cases! The result is you look for labor and talent overseas and that is net negative for this region when those jobs could have been here.
Why do people so often use the phrase “May I pick your brain?” Or “I’d love to pick your brain”…. At the end of my day, I’m tired, I don’t want anyone picking at my brain 😂
