Simply said Amoeba is the entire company split into separate small companies, independent accounting operations.
Amoeba is first used in manufacturing, and the manufacturing process can be independent of each other. There's a problem with the software industry.
1, the amoeba Independent management into marketing, that is, every department must be marketing, all have to profit. Even financial, human resources also want profits.
Recruiting a person for money, financial remittance of a fee and so on. It's completely deformed.
2, because of the software development after the split, the independent departments, many are parallel relations, rather than the upper and lower relationship between the amoeba, departments in addition to business relations, but also a more competitive relationship,
For their own profit, it is not natural to take into account other departments. Personnel can not be reused, can not coordinate the arrangement of resources, resulting in some departments are idle, and some departments are still hiring. If the two departments are talking about the same product, they will get their own.
3, employees no longer have a sense of belonging, no sense of belonging to the company, only the sense of belonging to departments, only for the department services. This means that while you're in a big company, it's like doing it in a small company.
4, from the historical perspective, China's management is used to learn from foreign countries, many of them do not consider the actual situation to help hard sets. Lead to inevitable failure. Very few successes.
5. The idea of distorting amoeba management as a profit center is a deviation. The source of profit is the operation, the operation is good only profit.
If the upside is reversed and the profit is centered, then there will be nothing to profit from. This leads to poor quality of operation. such as cut corners for profit and so on.
For profit abolition of a large number of senior programmers, the use of cheap, leading to the development of quality problems, and constantly repair, the cost went up again.
In order to profit, we all want to use cheap, cheap basic have hard to have a good hand.
In order to profit, veteran also do not want to bring new, why, bring new people when the cost of that can only be their own burden, so do not cost.
So let the newcomer himself, to learn from the wall.
