The solution is to never reveal the metrics used and to rely on many metrics to evaluate.
Singular metric evaluation, like the growth model insanity, is how we end up with massive companies making no profit but somehow subsidizing their services to users.
- deckard1 4y agoIn my experience metrics aren't used to evaluate. They are used to justify decisions management has already made. Management will never tell you, but they almost certainly have hidden metrics (or, simply, biases). But the discovery of such hidden metrics would destroy the image of the egalitarian work environment they like to promote. Much like in The Wire, you come to a conclusion and then work backwards with the metrics to find your support.
