I've been fighting this battle for years in my org and every time we start to make progress we go through yet another crisis and have to let some of our junior staff go. Then when we need to hire again it's an emergency and we can only hire more senior staff because we need to get things done and nobody is there to fill the gaps.
It's been a vicious cycle to break.
