Great article. Sums up what I've observed over my entire career. Incentives are orthogonal at best to what is actually good for the company, and at times, doing things that actively harm the company can be the way up the ladder. We're worse than bad at measuring and rewarding good performance.
- electromech 3y agoRight! Other commenters here seem to have interpreted the article backwards. How I read it: caring and working hard can get you punished; taking the safe and easy path can get you rewarded. Sadly, that lines up with my experience. Although I still love the work (the real work) I hate The Game® more and more every year.
