All that turnover is expensive.

Maybe it's expensive, maybe not. It could be a cost savings overall. If an employee comes in at $15/hr, but after a year you need to raise them to $16/hr, and after 2 years to $18/hr, then if they leave (or are fired) before they get paid more, then net net you may be saving on total payroll costs. More delicately stated, if 80% of your total workforce is in year 1 at any given time, you might be saving on payroll when compared to having only 20% of your total workforce being in year 1.
