How unfair can people get, how can they sit down and decide the fate of someone just based on perceptions they have, probably they don't know what is required for a balanced team. I will never ever have a team of geeks working for me, the team has to have people with well rounded personalities and then the manager has to groom all of them like a family. Money is just not a good enough motivator, what motivates people is you showing confidence in them and encouraging them. Believing in them and grooming them, respecting them and all their notions and convictions and still try not to change them into cynics.
Big organizations churn out cynics like crazy, the team dynamics is based on lobbying, prejudices and at times you have incompetent non-leaders sitting in leadership position, trying to work their hand at middle management.
Clueless middle management is a sure shot death of a company culture, and I can smell the rot here, Infact it has been rotting too long now. The stench is unbearable now.
I am absolutely sure the Managers here don't know strength, weaknesses and interests of folks working in the team, they are busy trying to look good in whatever they do, and most of the times looking for scapegoats.
A manager trying to delegate all he can to people under him, on the excuse that they will learn, he doesn't have visibility into what is happening and will ask sticky questions at the end, so that you can be blamed, whereas if he had shown that interest in the beginning the whole thing would have been different.
