I couldn't agree more, hiring from the hip just to ship something just screams red flag.

As an employee, I want to come into a business knowing that each of my team members is as dedicated to the project as I am or is able to get me amped up for it. Knowing that one of them is only temporary (especially if they're one of the first employees) makes me question how serious the company actually is to make a quality product as opposed to trying to get dollars in the door as soon as they can. It also makes me question whether my employment is seen as just a stepping-stone as well.
