Some companies practice for as long as 3 months or even 6 months. What is the reason?

Before an employee joins a new company, the recruiter will tell you that the company has a probation period, usually as long as three months, and some probation periods are as long as six months or even one year. Many job seekers feel that the probation period is too long to change this requirement of the company. Many job seekers can't choose a company because the probation period is too long. In other words, such job seekers are reluctant to hire new employees because of the probation period. Why do so many companies set such a long probation period?

1, saving costs

Not all companies are so rich, and many new employees don't know much about the company's work content and methods after they join the company. It takes some time to mold them. It is impossible to say that they have not created use value and have not returned the corresponding wages. No one said that they started this company because they gave money to others. The boss is bent on making money. If it is a probation period, the salary given to employees can be relatively low, and changing the direction can save some company costs.

2, grasp the staff in a short time.

Many employees did well in the early days of the company, and they did well at all levels. However, as time goes on, some of their bad habits will appear, such as liking to go to work, being late, conveying negative emotions, or being lazy at work. The probation period will be longer, and the basic abilities of employees can be found, which is also very practical for the company's talent training.

3. Let employees know more about the company.

Many employees said that when they first arrived at the company, they didn't understand the company's deception and working mode. When they became ordinary employees, they found the company in trouble. They wanted to leave at that time because they were reluctant to resign after signing the contract. The three-month probation period can also help employees better understand the company's corporate culture. If employees agree with the company, they will choose to stay, which is also a process of double choice.

Of course, this probation period is also divided into different situations. Generally speaking, the probation period of sales work is longer. Because sales work is a field that must be accumulated, employees' working ability is invisible in the short term. However, if such a technical post can be learned in a few days, there is no need for the company to extend such a long probation period, which is also unreasonable for employees.
