Gamification, creating fake ladders, groups, clubs and shiny awards are common techniques in managing the emotionally-driven producers, aka the line workers. I'm not sure if this works with waymo employees, as they are likely smarter t

Because they are useful to do the "dirty" work. I realised that when I started running my company. There are good employees and bad ones. It's emotionally hard to fire the bad ones, but if we are separated by a few managers,

I like the tech labor movement idea, as long as it works on practical goals. It could be funded by membership fees and have lawyers on payroll to make some changes in the laws. Noncompetes should be outlawed, for example. Membership should
