This 'administrative expansion' is part of what I was talking about. Caveat: I have only barely studied economics.
- Clubber 5y agoI was once in a meeting with 3 developers (me being the lead) and 12 managers and discussing how we were going to implement something we already implemented. It lasted 2 hours. In this same company, I had a meeting to discuss what we were going to discuss in another meeting of the same people. This was a company born of a merger of 5 different companies.
