| Wouldn't people go from stages similar to culture shock? 1) Wow, very interesting company. I didn't know so many things can be done in different ways than I'm used to. Very smart ideas out there. 2) OMG, this company is full with idiots. Everything is done the wrong way but somehow it has not collapsed yet. 3) Yeah okay, some stuff is the way it is because it would't be feasible any other way due to the quirks of the business. Other things are the way it is because of historical reasons and it doesn't make sense to re-do it at the moment. 4) You know what, I think I understand what this company is all about. It's not perfect but people are actually doing great things here. 5) OMG, this business is crime against humanity. It shouldn't exist, I don't know how I'm supposed to do this anymore. Money can't buy me. 6) Well, the world is not perfect and I understand the imperfections and I can function. It's not like they are doing it any better anywhere else. I grew to appreciate upper management, now I understand our business and I'm happy to do my part. 3 months should be enough for a nice honeymoon stage. Both sides can know that longterm relationship is achievable if they have a nice honeymoon stage. |
