There is no dedication to an employer unless you pay well and offer some significant benefits on top of that, which endears that particular employee. Most resumes will have someone switching jobs every 2-3 years. If you expect to hire someone in today's age with longevity and dedication, you're behind the times by a significant margin.
Employers really have only themselves to blame. Decades of empty promises, stagnant wages, and expecting people to put work over life created it.

I am an owner of a small business, and I can guarantee that the motivated and productive get raises and often.
Big business are terrible when it comes to this.
