It’s not as surprising to see the realistic side and ideal side of working. Ideally, you would like to have team work and all, however, there are a lot of reasons in industry why individual effort and quotas matter. There is also a hierarchy wherein agreeing with the boss is a good thing to do. There are a lot of complicated politics and business factors that affect performance in the realistic workplace, therefore, it causes the ideal reward systems to be dismantled. There’s very little things to do to be change the culture set in these types of companies. However, it is important to note that working for and towards the greater good produces great results. Working together and producing a product that will benefit a bigger population is more important than advancing the career of one individual or making more money. I think that an effective and safe product benefits both the employee and the employer. If the product is good and it attracts a lot of customers, more people will buy it which means that more money will come in.
