Hate to burst the ego bubble, but hitting metrics is what you were hired to do.

Hate to burst the ego bubble, but hitting metrics is what you were hired to do.
- uoaei 4y agoPut differently: if you were hired for a certain job, and your personal convictions don't align with that job such that you don't identify as someone who wants to "hit those metrics", find another job.
- Apocryphon 4y agoThe managers could've been more upfront about that and what those metrics are during the hiring process!
- jlarocco 4y agoOn the other hand, as a potential employee it doesn't hurt to ask during the hiring process if it matters to you. For a large enough company, it's a given that there will be metrics, and a lot of people don't care much what they are, so it's not always something to spend time on in the interview.
