Companies That Compromise

It started out as a new company full of team spirit, and communication. In a few short months it became us against them. 

The unrealistic daily performance expected by the employees is taking a toll on the workers physically and there motivation and attitudes are quickly declining. Many have left the building. 

Working in a repetitive motion job where you stand in one place for 5 hrs before you can have a short 10 minute break is bad enough but when you put a buzzer out to call people back to work is really a test of endurance on the workers part.For the benefit of the company I can only hope that you will wake up to the reality of this environment that breads discontent.

 The job requires skilled labor that you hired at the beginning but now are by-passing them and training people to do the work without the background knowledge required to problem solve. There are some things that are known as necessary evils. This means that just because you get by with something for long stretches of time does not mean that the price you will pay in the long run will out way the cost of compromising the better solution I am a firm believer in people who run companies should have an understanding of every position involved in the process. 

. How do you know what you do not know? and how will you fix it when it breaks? At what cost do you determine the value of trained and skilled and seasoned workers? Speed equals greed with out quality. Knowledge without wisdom is just information you do not know what to do with. Evaluate and assess your current state compared to what you are trying to accomplish.

 If you are willing to compromise quality in the beginning of your business you will be short lived and loose out in the end. some quality compromising can and does cost more than a loss of money, it cost a loss of lives. It is time to prioritize and be reasonable. Is this really what you want to be known for? Just another slave driving company who is willing to compromise quality in product and people all for the almighty dollar.I believe those days are coming to an end and the standards for companies is changing. You have the ability to set a standard of excellence in what you manufacture as well as the culture you create while doing it.
