AA B4求思路！！！（已经搜过前人贴）

B4. The following appeared in a memorandum from the CEO of a consumer electronics manufacturing firm to the head of the company's human resources department, who is responsible for hiring new employees:

    “Eight years ago, our firm’s profits were increasing with each new employee we added. We discovered that each employee had the skills and motivation to generate more revenue for the firm than his or her salary cost us. However, for the past two years, our profit margin has been falling, even though we have continued to add employees. Thus, our newer employees are not generating enough revenue to justify their salaries. We must not be hiring new employees with the same level of skills and motivation as those we used to attract. Clearly, then, failures in the human resources department account for our falling profits.”

 搜了前人的帖子，只有一个理由，就是前后发生不能说明recruit new employee是造成利润降低的原因，可能有它因。

请问除了以上这点还有没有什么其他的point可以argue??

多谢！！！

先顶一下

中午赶飞机

希望大家多讨论

有空再来

偶的观点：

1. causal oversimplification:adding new employees coincides with decrease in margin doesn't necessarily prove that the former caused the latter.

2. gratuitous assumption: unfairly assumes that the new employees contribute less to the company

3. hasty conclusion: HR shoud be responsible for this phenomenon? Maybe HR recruites qualified people but the working environment impedes the employees' creativity.

谢谢！！！
