These systems make it more efficient to remove the actively toxic members for your team. Beligerence can be passively aggressively “handled” by additional layers but at considerable time and emotional labor cost to people who could be getting more work done without having to coddle untalented assholes.
- layer8 7mo agoSounds like there was a bad hiring process.
- usefulcat 7mo agoThere's no such thing as a hiring process that avoids that problem 100% of the time. After all, most people will be on their best behavior during an interview, and even a lengthy interview process is a very short period of time compared to working with someone for weeks or months.
- layer8 7mo agoNot 100%, but well enough that it shouldn’t be a general expectation to have someone like that on the team.
- hinkley 7mo agoThey’re all bad hiring processes. Some worse than others. Hiring known quantities can slip onto nepotism shockingly fast.
