I work at a place that brags on %30 of applicants are hired, and it’s associated with a higher education system whose ego is larger than it should be for a non-ivy. And of course this trickles down to the people who work there. Lucky for me, non of my coworkers or bosses are like this.
Whoever fucked up, must have really fallen hard. The managers made a spreadsheet to track these items now. We are generally give copious amounts of leeway. Seniors on the team are expected to be thought leaders who work autonomously from leadership.
I will continue to maliciously comply. And track every piece of email on this excel spreadsheet, even if it’s a “understood” or “have a great weekend”.
I laughed when my coworker said it’s demotivating. I said wow, if anything, this will motivate me to produce worthless information to break the system. I get paid regardless of my actual productivity.
