"The company" i.e. somebody else's money.
its a matter of perspective, to the company having people devoted to it is good, to the employee it's bad.
If I'm devoted to winning, that means I want to win myself. If I don't profit from the company's success outside of being allowed to keep my job, increasing the company's bottom line isn't a "win" for me. That's not a matter of perspective.
Maybe companies shouldn't be allowed a perspective unless they're worker owned. Case closed! --oh wait, the profiteers need slaves for their yachts.
that sounds like a good way to get independent contractors to be used by more companies.
Labor regulation? Never heardofer
Wow what a mind blowing revelation dude you must be so smart
