I agree that employees might leave managers.
But I disagree that people don't leave companies.
First, there are some companies that kinda act on their own, they are very old, and people just obey tradition and old rules and policies. This sometimes the managers can fight hard against, and several will fail anyway.
Sometimes, the company is in a field that make the employee leave, I know for example many IT people that after they realised how banks operate, they felt bad about it and quit.
Sometimes the company itself is having problems, like being sued, or going bankrupt...
So no, sometimes the fault is of the company.
But sometimes.
Asshat managers can make people go away too.
- tonyedgecombe 14y agoVery good managers might shine in a bad environment and very bad ones disrupt a good environment. Most though just reflect the organisational culture.
- speeder 14y agoExactly, and it is very hard sometimes to deviate from that culture, it requires exceptional individuals. Unfortunately it is seemly easier to be excepcional toward the bad than toward the good.
- narag 14y agoI agree. I've left sometimes for bad managers, sometimes for bad company. Oh, and once it was both. Honestly, it was so sweet when the guy asked what they could do to keep me and I answered "don't bother" with a giant smile.
