  • Most companies will be thinking about whether they need all that expensive office space.

  • Companies may bombard them with training modules and video chats—"onboarding", in the jargon of human-resources departments.
  • 公司可能会利用培训模块和视频聊天来轰炸新员工,用人力资源部门的行话来说就是“入职培训”。
  • But that may be no more useful than reading a manual as your only preparation for trying to ride the winning horse in the Kentucky Derby.
  • 但是这种做法就如同仅做了阅读手册这一准备,就试图驾驭肯塔基州德比的冠军马一样,对新员工来说没有多大用处。
