- throwanem 2y agoIt's a reference to "scientific management" aka Taylorism, the pejorative name by which that now-universal practice was rightly known the last time labor had something resembling the power we deserve in this country.
- marcosdumay 2y agoTaylor is a famous management researcher, that created an entirely new school of management, which by its turn evolved even before his death to become something completely different from the theories held by Taylor himself. Just to point out in reference to the sibling comment, Taylorism is not a pejorative term, it's the correct name of a school of management. Any pejorative implication on that name is a perfectly deserved result of the quality of the ideas in it.
