> The existing seniors in your team will enjoy working with smart and motivated developers.

Maybe I just suck, but as a senior I've rarely enjoyed working with junior developers, even the earnest ones who really wanted to learn. I always had a ton on my plate, and mentoring juniors didn't replace anything from that ton of work, it just added to it.

And yes, I get that mentoring juniors is useful and essential. But companies need to build that into the job, not build it on top of the job.
