Businesses are in it for the money, employees tend to be one of the larger expenses, so maintaining some bullshit positions that would cost them money doesn’t make fiscal sense, so what’s up?

    Why would all companies just unilaterally agree to waste money so people can make a living

    The motivations of the company are often very different to the motivations of senior staff within the company.

    Mid-level manager is obsessed with building his empire within the company. The bigger their division, the happier they are.

    Mid-level manager creates bullshit jobs and justifies them up the chain. “Our team is vital to the company and my staff is swamped. I need to increase my headcount”.

      That’s fine. That’s my point though. The intentions are entirely different. I don’t think any company is actively worried about ensuring people are employed. The end result of a bunch of other motivations may be the same, but my statement is about the why.
