【Haichuan Workplace Chat】Is there cut-throat competition in your company?

2021-04-21View Original

Thread Content

Today I came across a statement online: Intra-competition arises from the failure to abide by competitive rules, which leads to increased competition costs; those involved in such internal competition gain little benefit, while third parties reap more advantages. It can be said that involution is everywhere in society; wherever there are groups and interests, there is competition, which is what involution entails. Although everyone talks about opposing cut-throat competition and despises such behavior, they unconsciously end up participating in it. In the workplace, everyone is supposed to work eight hours a day; but suddenly some people start working until 11 p.m., which forces everyone else to do the same. Yet the salary remains unchanged, so employees have no choice but to work more slowly. Some might think that in this situation at least someone benefits, but those who reap the profits are often not the employees, rather your bosses. In the workplace, some people are addicted to slacking off and unable to break free from this habit, while others actively or passively get involved in cutthroat competition. As internal competition intensifies, people keep draining themselves just to reach higher positions. It also constantly drains oneself, just in order to reach higher heights.

Some say that internal competition means self-destruction; there is only one piece of the cake, and everyone could have shared it equally. But some people are afraid of getting a small share, so they start fighting over it, which prompts others to do the same as well. This leads to a lack of unity among them, with everyone competing against each other, and in the end, only those who manage to seize the cake get to eat it.

If it cannot be avoided, then improve oneself so as to be able to thrive in a different environment. Breaking the tradition of secure jobs – only the incompetent are most afraid of competition. A platform that exploits employees through internal strife and fails to increase their earnings is not worth keeping

At the beginning of the year, the chairman said, “4 people work, 2 people do the actual work, but salaries are paid to 3 people.” By the end of the year, the chairman said, \"Given the poor economic conditions, through our joint efforts we have largely achieved the goals set at the beginning of the year. Looking ahead to next year, the economic environment will remain sluggish; we must be mentally prepared to go through tough times and work together to overcome them.\" The result is: employees were laid off, the workload increased, salaries didn’t go up, and bonuses even decreased. The chairman smiled.

There’s another phenomenon: as the number of employees decreases, salaries rise a little. With not enough people to carry out the work, the quality of service declines. So they have to hire more people again, but in the end everyone still does the same amount of work while their salaries have increased
