- bonoboTP 5y agoThis is information asymmetry that employers also weaponize to hide the true value produced by each employee. Would employees agree to their salary if they fully understood how much of the value they create is pocketed at various other levels of the org?
- Gigachad 5y agoBecause humans are irrational. It's the butts in seats mentality vs results. The business should be bringing in experts to regularly work out what parts of their process are slow and to streamline them.
