Ok, which companies has it killed? At least one example?

many companies are walking corpses - see GE
And the sun looks yellow, but maybe back to the topic, is there an example of a company which was killed primarily by not hiring juniors?

Its like I asked of examples of burn victims and you told me "steve has the flu".

GE today is not the GE it was 5 years ago. They have really paired down the company. They spun off finance, sold healthcare, and got out of energy & power. GE today is essentially just an engineering company in the aerospace sector, and they've paid down $100B of debt since 2018.

Today they're sitting on $10B in cash and do another $10B in free cashflow annually. Not very corpse-like!
