* Right now on the front page we have this article advocating letting people go, and another article warning how difficult it is to find and hire people. There is a bit of dissonance between the two, I find.* A lot depends on the company. Are you a Whatsapp with 55 engineers and $19 billion in market capital? Or are you Accenture, with $300k (give or take) in market cap per employee? Each has a very different take on the value per employee, what they pay them, and where on the superstar versus superteam spectrum they are. Overall a very good article. There are managers who clearly don't give a damn. They have to be Steve Jobs superstars to keep their people. On the flip side, you have to produce success to keep a team moving. I've had to replace managers who were well loved, but had angry clients due to a lack of results by their teams.
