A lot of that is that weird headcount thing that translates to how important you are as a manager. - if you have a lot of reports YOU ARE IMPORTANT - if you have a big budget (because of lots of reports) YOU ARE IMPORTANT wait, firing someone might take away a req/headcount. I AM NO LONGER AS IMPORTANT To the point that managers that don't have more than, like, 4 or 5 reports basically should plan and aren't a "I do a workers job plus management", regardless of company, should know they are going to get laid off or fired at some point. You're right, it is a forced culling. I can see it as being done for a couple years to cull fat, but as a permanent fixture of the business practices? Well then it's your culture, and your culture is backstabbing, machiavellian, ass kissing, undermining, outright sabotaging, juking stats, etc. |
