    Which is what they do in many companies : putting pressure on people to extract more productivity. And it does not work.

    It does, they’re called start ups. Ever wondered, how a team of like 5 or 10 can build a completely sufficient product and then later on the same company has 10,000 employees and the overall quality seems to have gone down?

    But that, again, works not just because communication is easier within a smaller team, but also because there’s proper motivation: Stock options. Which goes with my point that having something to fight for is what makes people more productive. Deadlines or “Stock price go up” is not something to fight for unless you have a decent holding of stock or at least stock options. It’s someone else’s money and it doesn’t help you in any way.

      Startups don’t work better than bigger companies. You’re daydreaming!

      You seem like a liberal utopian. It’s useless to talk with you. Your consideration on people are completely crazy.
