If someone employs me to innovate for them I expect them to protect me from the consequences of failure (as long as I don't constantly produce failure) while still appreciating my results.
I mean steering the company to invest in projects that are more likely to succeed, that's just the job of upper management IMO.
- justapassenger 7y agoThey protect you from the consequences of failure and appreciate your results by giving you stable salary.
- t0astbread 7y agoI realize this is an unpopular opinion but I really think it's management's job to buffer our failures (or even better, avoid them upfront by making me work on things that likely succeed) and share the fruits of our success with me. And in that way, a stable salary isn't fair. Of course it doesn't work like that, unfortunately.
