Now that there's a tick box in Outlook to tie your surveilled corporate account to your real-life personal account on LinkedIn -- combined with the fact that we know that Microsoft aggregates our "productivity" data to allow companies to compare their scores -- do people really think that Microsoft ISN'T selling a person's "productivity" scores from their previous and current employers to potential recruiters?
- lumost 3y agoIs this going to turn into a game where the individual who uses Microsoft products the most is considered the most productive? These scores do have some meaning, after all, there are folks who are giving the job their all and folks who are phoning it in. These people aren't guaranteed to be the same in 6 months. The hard worker may burnout, and the person taking it easy might have life circumstances change. The person working hard may be so successful they leave anyway. We generally dislike paying people more than a 2x difference within the same bracket which means once you hit the top of the terminal level, there is limited incentive to work hard. Folks are either working for the next gig, or they are learning to extract more life satisfaction from their employers.
