Yeah if your Csuite and managers are brain dead and pushing psudeo-intellectualism then how do the workers produce the same gains? My boss can’t even be bothered to project plan and half my company jumps at the idea of hiring a contractor for $15k-20k instead of understanding and implementing work themselves. Then cite efficiency as the reason, efficiency for what ROI?

I get where you're coming from, was shocked when I left a relatively well organised corporate and did work at a relatively older company with a ton of legacy systems - when I asked what the strategy was they explained the structure to me - at the year end results they highlighted that they hit targets of cost cutting and saw this as an achievement, the whole narrative was around how its a tough economic environment (the presentation was literally all about things happening in the world - nothing about things they did/projects they delivered/value they added...) - they also had more project managers than engineers and wondered why projects kept missing deadlines- they hoped AI would solve their problems - but you can't get ROI in a space like that where your engineers are using AI to patch the ship to keep it afloat while the project managers think they're in an airplane and are trying to get it off the ground...
