If I were to have a criticism it would be of management hiring more people than they really need

A lot of companies I've worked at have been the opposite 😅 management making do with less by making people work harder to the point of burnout is not very helpful.

Agreed on management not recognizing when one of their people is ready for a bigger role, it's even worse when the person is performing that role and has expectations of that role but doesn't have the title or salary bump to show for it.

Oh definitely lots of places under hire, that wasn’t really what I was getting at. I meant if someone is in a full time role at a job and has enough free time to take a whole as other job without any apparent impact on his output, odds are good they have a lot more people on the team than they really need and a good proportion of people’s time gets spent on the illusion of work getting done more so than the substance.
