For the first time in my life finishing a project was just rewarded with a pizza party. It’s desperate times despite the record profits.
I've got this right now. Sales missed their targets by 90% last year. Engineering putting all our effort into new products, hitting goals, etc and minimal money to go around at annual reviews and bonus time.
It's always "desperate times". Otherwise they don't trust the workforce to actually do their jobs.
I know my work is so baffled when they actually have someone with a passion for the job. Despite being amazing and super easy to "manage", they've managed to screw over some of our best to drive them to leave while favoring some exceptionally mediocre people. Sycophants, braggarts, and people who generally game the arbitrary crap prevail over passion and talent.
So manufactured crises to get people to thrash around and give some appearance of "value", for lack of being able to understand let alone retain good workers.
