"Use it or Lose it rule..."
Spend your annual budget quickly by writing Purchase orders and Hiring people before you really know what the customer wants, because
(1) When the company is looking for any spare budget as the financial year goes on, they will come and take it back from you
(2) next year you may not get as much as you ask for
Result = overspend on the wrong things, managed by an inadequate team...
- sloaken 6y agoThat is my favorite anti pattern. In addition to losing the money, your budget will be cut by that amount next year, since you obviously did not need it.
