There are lots of variations but my list is this:
No hypocrisy ( you all need to work hard while I'm only working 2h/day)
No superstars (high performers are fine but no high performing jerks)
No gossip
Fair and easy to understand reward structure
Things aren't made difficult deliberately ( 6 layers approval process)
Laziness and poor attitudes aren't tolerated.
- bluefirebrand 6y agoA big one for me these days is "No pressure to attend non-mandatory outside-of-work-hours outings like after work happy hours". I don't really drink, I don't like bars, I often like to spend my evenings with my SO or my friends, not my coworkers. I don't like being made to feel like I am "not a team player" for not wanting to participate in "team building" outside of work hours.
- Cyph0n 6y agoYou took the words right of my mouth... I also don't drink, but my main gripe is that I'm joining a team, not a family. I have other obligations and relationships that need to fit into my already limited non-work time.
- cosmodisk 6y agoI do drink and I'm happy to go to a bar or restaurant or whatever else is there but only when I feel like it. There's no "team building" happening in a bar,unless people think that having a few beers together makes you a stronger team.
- Uhhrrr 6y agoGossip is useful, though, because social networks around work usually outpace org chart changes by (ballpark guess) 10x.
