On a related note, why in hell are politicians and managers responsible for decision-making in these situations, they have neither the knowledge nor the experience to handle such issues  I can understand good intentions and guilt complex, but they will do more damage than good |
It is decentralisation gone wrong. They wanted managers to be more independent so the firms can react better to market changes, but the thing is that in this world, only 4/10 can make decisions effectively with no time loss under pressure.
And that it is usually the politically inclined who are better with people, hence they are able to move their way up much faster than the technically rational (engineers).
Worked as PT for around 10 times in office environments, 6 of which are for big MNCs. Probably that is what made me want to be a freelancer.
