I really fail to understand how a company can consciously guide itself to degrade so badly. Like these were actual decisions of meetings and the results of a ton of work of teams to implement. And it destroyed the site.
Product of too much VC, probably.
- AlbertCory 3y agoProduct of middle managers, the cause of nearly all corporate problems.
- lupire 3y agoMiddle managers pursue the CEO's vision. They aren't steering the ship.
- AlbertCory 3y agoThat's your theory, anyway.
- motoxpro 3y agoEither the CEO sees what’s going on and is fine with it mean it is their vision, they are putting their feet up and don’t care, or they are not fine with it and have no control over the company. Seems bad any way you look at it.
- AlbertCory 3y ago> they are not fine with it and have no control over the company something something "all unhappy families are unhappy in their own way" In some places, the "vision" is sufficiently vague that all sorts of dumb decisions can be justified by it. Or the CEO is so stupid that he only listens to his direct reports, who all tell him everything is under control. And when they tell him not to "micromanage" he listens and backs off. You can't make any universal statements about this.
- motoxpro 3y agoi.e. "bad" CEO. I don't really think the reason matter.
- frabjoused 3y agoCan't see a something like "show answers to related questions directly under a single answer to the intended question" being a middle-manager decision.
- AlbertCory 3y agoYou can't? How do you think it happens in a fairly large company, then?
- StressedDev 3y agoMore likely, it's a product of not making money and of trying to find a way to make money and not go out of business.
