Who Is This For?

This article is aimed at beginners to explain why hiring workers might not be in your best interest at the start — even though it can actually be profitable if you use the right tools.


Why It Works For Veteran Players (But Not You)

On paper, you might come out ahead — but only by a very small margin, and that's if you're even profitable in the first few days.

Veteran players have liquidity, so they can afford to lose a day or two just to come out ahead after a week.

As a beginner? That's a mistake you can't afford — every coin counts.


Problem #1 — Hiring Prices Keep Changing

Worker hiring prices change constantly. Without liquidity, you won't be able to keep up with the market — and that's where the real gap between you and veteran players shows.


Problem #2 — You Need That Money

At the start, every coin should go toward developing your factories as fast as possible. It makes no sense to lose money now just to profit after a week — in that same time you could've built one or two factories and upgraded them!


Problem #3 — The Worker Might Leave You

If the price of your product drops, you're in trouble. Why? Because if you lower the salary, the worker will most likely leave immediately since they're always looking for the best profit. And by then, it won't matter that you ended up losing!


So When Does Hiring Actually Pay Off?

There's a mechanic called the Worker Bonus — it increases every day the worker stays in your company. Once the worker stays long enough, the bonus reaches up to +10% factory production. And that's exactly when you're actually profiting from your factories


Summary

Hiring isn't bad — it's just not the right time yet. Develop your factories first, build up liquidity, then think about hiring.
