I've worked with lots of PhDs from all over the world, and I've seen something similar from the Germans among them. Trying to assign menial tasks to their "lesser" colleagues; trying to meddle in their work and impose arbitrary decisions on them. In fact, I've seen them do it among themselves and not just to the non-PhDs.

- expertentipp 8y agoYes, extremely toxic an infuriating. Cliquish self-satisfied judgmental hard-heads.
