A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

The sad thing is, for companies on the scale of Dell, performance of individual workers (those who actually create value, maybe their direct superiors) is almost irrelevant.

There's so much red tape, so much "aligning", meetings, pointless communication and pointless rituals that hardly anyone gets anything done. And in those 5min you're doing actual work, it's almost irrelevant how good you are.
