Help me understand the benefits of this kind of corporate culture ? |
I work for a large corporation, and I just don't get why things are done the way they are. For example, there is no job-specific training at ALL. If you're hired into a position, you're just supposed to "figure out" how to perform your role. People waste days trying to track down things that could have been explained in 5 minutes. And when people give presentations, instead of saving questions til the end, people ask questions throughout. This almost always results in the presentation going really late and/or getting cut short because people ask questions that would have been answered in the presentation, but suddenly are no longer in a logical sequence and end up being given in bits and pieces that don't tie together well. I could give a bunch of other examples, but they won't all fit here. I know I'm an "older" employee (44) so I'm "old school", and I know the "old way" probably was TOO rigid and stifled creativity, but I just don't see that this way is particularly "better" People like creativity. People like to feel loose. The new corporate culture is one that is a microcosim of socienty. People are impatient and looking for a quick answer or fix. People have little attention spans which makes others have less pateints. You really have three options: 1)change the system 2) accept the system 3) create the new system You would most likely be most happy to create a new system.. even if it means you start your own company and do it your way. Find a niche fill the void.. and let others learn your new company's corporate culture.
