This introduced an almost Darwinian flavor to org dynamics where teams
scrambled to get their work done to avoid getting reorged and subsumed into
a competing team.
To the extent that an organization is so wealthy and vast that it can fund redundant efforts, isn't getting reorged into the "winning" team a good thing?
- SpicyLemonZest 1y agoIt's not the worst thing in the world, but it's usually much better for your career to have other people reorged into your team. Even if the reorg doesn't reset promotion progress for everyone who moves (which it often does!) that way you get to demonstrate leadership ramping the new folks up on how things work in your neck of the woods.
