What I find interesting, is that instead of taking that savings directly (by firing accounting employees), managers will just increase the load on accounting now that they are more efficient.
And when reporting those same efficiencies up, many managers will take the credit for any efficiency gain, rather than give credit to the employees that made the gain happen.
- tsimionescu 5y agoThat is precisely why the managerial class see themselves as so important. They generally view employees as exchangeable livestock in a sense, with managers being in charge of choosing the right stock and seeing that each cattle is optimizing production. And just as you don't pay your cattle much (food, benefits) but you do pay a good herder, similarly you shouldn't pay your employees nearly as much as the manager.
