Research is with me that they perceive employees at the office as more committed, promotion-worthy even though there’s no evidence for that. It’s just the people who are fine playing the ineffective corporate game.

Imo the problem is lack of structured evaluation systems that’s perpetuated by dinosaurs for managers, lazy and/or incompetent managers without context who don’t want structured evaluation systems, so they can keep stroking their egos instead of making the company perform better, wasting everybody’s time with this BS
