Looks like people once again are trying to make very complicated measurements that micromanage workers instead of using classical approaches like "The iron triangle of project management" - good, fast and cheap.

Why is there no tool that shows a triangle with features, bugs and support quality. Because it would obviously show that there are no new features, terrible support and tons of bugs. Everyone is doing everything except the job that needs to be done. They do it to meet the requirements of newly created 20 indicators. And who is to blame for this ? Obviously not management, they just sit and watch indicators waiting to send those who are underperforming on the bar charts to the HR department for a little talk.

Splendid
