This is a good point you bring up, however I do not fully agree with the skepticism disconnect in how the industry rewards motivation. While this is definitely an issue within any industry, based off my experience it is in the minority of cases and heavily dependent on the company’s culture. In addition, it can be attributed to the lack of leadership. Companies with a good work culture will recognize that it is better to listen to employees when faults are found in order to better mitigate future risk and this can benefit the employer and employee financially. In addition, teams (instead of individuals) are rewarded for the efforts of completing a project.
