> Overwhelmingly, people get promoted because they solve challenging problems with meaningful impact. That's how capitalism and modern corporation work. It's key to ask, does the promotion (or strong performance rating) happen before the impact or after? You can deliver Project X that will save $YY Million dollars. Everyone agrees the impact is "there", the complexity is there. Launch a PoC to a handful of use cases, realize most of that impact, then move onto something else. PoC works for those use cases, never becomes a complete solution, and slowly develops issues. Once it has enough issues, someone else can solve the problem again for the even more impact assuming the problem space has grown since the initial launch. Capitalism works when there's competition and cost for (long-term) failure. Neither are guaranteed to exist if you're at a Big Corp that's printing money. |

Disagree
Big Corp print money still squeeze employees. See the record profit & revenue and 10k+ layoffs.
