How do you evaluate the value of an employee in a certain company? What are the factors that need to be considered? Do you go by his academic achievements or by his years of experience?

It would be disastrous to buy a company that may appear good on paper but is full of weaknesses inside. We need “healthy” people to build up a healthy company.
