Of course there are better or worse work cultures.
- JumpCrisscross 3y agoNot if one is so cushy it demands to be automated. This is what high-end manufacturing looks like on the cutting edge. If we want those jobs and fabs in America, something has to give.
- cinntaile 3y agoIsn't the issue that it can't be automated away at this point? Or at least not at a cost that makes sense compared to just throwing overworked engineers at the problem.

- Teever 3y agoSustainability of the organization. Model corporations after organisms and view work culture as a measure of metabolic process. If a work culture is chewing thorough too many employees without returning some tangible benefit it's not as efficient or as sustainable as one that doesnt.
- cinntaile 3y agoPick a metric and you'll be able to rank them no?
- iancmceachern 3y agoI'm highlighting that different people will have different priorities
- cinntaile 3y agoIt doesn't impact anything, you can still rank them therefore there are better or worse work cultures. I think we can even universally agree that, all else being equal, people will prefer an 8 hour work day over a 10 hour work day. That people prefer to not be on call and so on.
- iancmceachern 3y agoYou and I are making the same point, which is opposite of the original commenter point. You and I are arguing that a better work cultitr means better for the employed. The original commenter was saying better work culture implies better for the companies bottom line. Totally polar opposite philosophies.
