From the inside this place has gone from good to mediocre, not only EK to blame but the city has it's part in it. Now if from the outside the mediocre still looks good enough, don't hesitate to apply. It still doesn't look mediocre enough to many of us, so we're staying. For how long? They are finding out right now. Just scratch the surface to have a deeper look when you're here for the interview.
My main problem is that with some experience from other parts of the world I see how easy it would be to keep this place attractive. We've all been in the industry long enough to know that keeping a place attractive, to treat employees with respect and not constantly lying to them is cheaper in the middle and long run. We also know that they know and by ignoring this proven principle they insult us. We know it's deliberate and that makes it easy to despise them in turn, the main reason for discontent and disrespect around here.
In the end it's their choice to deal that way. If they think that a increasing number of resignations and a decreasing number of adequate applications is good corporate governance then so be it.
By turning up the heat the ice is only getting thinner.
