which addresses this exact area in great detail. They went in with no preconceptions, and their conclusions are both intuitively sensible and consistant with my experiences of good and bad corporate structures in ways I hadn't entirely considered before. Wish I could remember the author to recommend it better.
It's the Greenskeepers. I think it was posted to Metafilter on a now-vanished host.
Nice to see it again, I suppose, although I'd almost banished it from my internal soundtrack.
Could be worse. Could be Manilow.
Every time I see Iggy Pop used to shill for a florist I have to turn the TV off or leave the room. I suppose it's ironic in a way, but my irony/disgust settings just don't stretch that far.
