Will have to read more about Taylorism, thanks for putting this on my radar.
I can see how the post reviews could be toxic, but pre estimates could also be toxic especially if estimates suddenly become hard deadlines. I think it comes down to nuance in both cases.
Post estimates could tie into performance reviews and bonus allocation as well. Where your bonus and performance would be a tight feedback loop, and determined by multiple peers vs. a single manager.
It really depends on each individual org which way works best
- aahortwwy 5y ago> Post estimates could tie into performance reviews and bonus allocation as well. Now your colleagues aren't estimating the task, they're estimating the post-estimate. I'd suggest adding Goodhart's Law to your reading list as well. Every single time I've seen estimates tied to anything performance related they've been actively gamed and lost their utility as a forecasting device.
