I don't know -- I have a friend that just got a payboost to $130k and admitted that she works just 19 hours a week out of 40. "But don't tell my boss."
So I wonder if any of this is really necessary in a remote world. I -- perhaps stupidly -- always put in my 40 hours....
- codegeek 5y ago"perhaps stupidly". No not really. You have morals which is a good thing. Your friend is cheating and unless she is really delivering great in 19 hours, she is not a good example to follow.
- kinos 5y agoCompanies don't reward morality, they're trained to extract as much value out of a resource as possible - it is the duty of a worker to establish limits and enforce them at every opportunity. "Doing only what needs to be done" is a perfectly normal limit.
- pgwhalen 5y agoNot commenting on work habits or company expectations, but I found “companies don’t reward morality” a funny statement: I would argue that morality is almost by definition something that doesn’t get rewarded. One is moral simply because they think it is right, not because it gets them something or because doing the opposite would get them punished.
