I'm a bit confused about the employee retention rates; they seem relevant, but I wonder if they really impact how well they handle personal information.

I practiced a similar question where we had to weigh different factors, and I think employee training could be less important than their reputation.

I think the financial health of the vendor is important, but I feel like the training program might not be as critical.

I guess the company figures they can just teach the vendor's employees on the job, you know, 'learn as you go' kind of thing. What could possibly go wrong, right?

Haha, I bet the folks in the HR department at the vendor are cringing at the thought of their training program being the 'least important' factor.
