Amen. Work without context is demoralising and can lead to micro decisions that don't align with the macro context of the business you're in.

But if you don't share context you can always blame it on the fact that there was a misunderstanding or that you had so much to do, that you couldn't blablabla.

And who is gonna challenge a manager and say that it's his job to prevent misunderstandings by sharing information?

The blame game is a great asset when you need to hide incompetence and you are afraid of judgement.

Nobody will be able to officialy blame you, but everyone will hate you privately.

If you thrive in such an environment, more power to you.
