[quote=Coronita]ditto. I think his intentions are good, but I don’t agree with everything he says. This is one of them I agree with.
The interesting part that I’m finding out as I talk to some companies these days. The question I get is “what is your experience with managing a remote team, and are you ok with this if this is a permanent arrangement….”
Other companies have the neutral stance “we don’t know what the company will finally decide, but when it’s decided we expect all management team members to tow the company line”…..
It’s very interesting how companies are trying to tackle this problem…Some have seemed to embraced the idea that this change is permanent and they want people with this mindset. Others are basically saying, we don’t know but we expect you to go along with the final decision.[/quote]
For the companies that ask people to tow the company line before they join but won’t give them the company line to tow, they’ll get a “yes, of course”. But when the company line get solidify, if it doesn’t match up w/ the employee’s expectation, they’ll leave if they can.
