It's quite simple. Most companies will have targets, and those targets will be set at a rate that makes the company money. If an employee falls below that target and they are costing the company more money than they are making. There is no point in any companies employing people like this.

As someone said earlier, having a job is not a right, you have to earn the place at interviews etc, and then prove that you are as good as you said you are. And then you have to maintain that standard.
