1,2 ) For worse.\n3) I would make it more fair and acknowledgeable of our efforts and not to depend on the friendships that are made inside and outside of work.\n4) our boss doesn't bother us as much as the last one. \n5,6) nope, need the money.

In this dynamic world things keep on changing due to technological development. example the ATMs installed in the banks have made the job of cashiers vanish. Similarly the computers are changing the job patterns and hence each organization has to restruture their employees nature of job they have to perform so that the idle labour is weeded out and only people are posted to places where their is work. This naturally results in change of job name , their pay scales etc, etc all this put together is known as restructuring.

A, yes you can change your environment to be more suitable to your needs. Does the person who answered before me think that all the cities of the world where there prior to man???

If you have inclination to grow and accept challenges , lyou should accept. In the few early years one has to change jobs 3-4 times before finding the right place and room for growth.

No. Different places, and different countrys have had many inovations in management.\n\nSome companies have gone to a Japaneese style. Some believe in Taylor, or carrot and stick, or drum and rope, Goldratt, etc. All of these styles and more are being used. \n\nManagement is a study, and some companies use workers like lab rats, some are great places to work, and still others treat their employees like monkeys.\n\nIn the US, the Union gained acceptance, forcing change. It is an interesting field, but takes a lot of reaserch.

absolutely, but  the work is hard and stressful.  i guess it all depends on what type of sales/marketing your managing though.

I keep my personal life separate from work.  I do not think the two should mix.  I get along with my coworkers.  I am polite and friendly, but I never forget the line.  I have seen too many people routine their careers and professional reputations by forgetting that.

Are you in a leadership role? Cuz I went through this at a Call-center that I ran, and I put out a MEMO that stated something like, "Personal Hygeiene On the Job" And listed a few basic requirements like showering, washing hair, clean & ironed clothes, brushing teeth & using mints if necessary. Then I stated at the bottom, "most of us are doing a great job coming to the workplace clean and tidy, but maybe a few of us need a reminder, to keep the office looking and smelling it's best".....It worked !!!!

After years of moving around advancing my career, I finally decided to "Marry" a company and settle down for the long haul.  Like I told them during my interview, I was interviewing them far more than they were me as it was my intention to retire here.\n\nI'm being groomed for my boss's job who's own retirement will be in about 5-6 years.\n\nI have a beautiful fiance and thus far, my tenure here is looking pretty good.\n\nIn five years, I see myself in my first home, married to my beautiful Stacey and running my department.  I'm looking forward to having the roots that I've had to keep unearthing at the expense of the career.  Now, I've put my time in and can settle back and build the longevity it takes to become a Senior VP at one the world's largest corporations.\n\nOh yeah, it's coasting time Baby !    ;-)\n\nP.S. --\n\nVery thoughtful question.  Thanks for the opportunity to share.

The reason they are asking these questions is to get personal responses.  Have you been at a job before where changes were occurring?  Then tell this story to the interviewer.  Is this your first job out of college?  Then use a situation that happened in a class or some extracurricular.\n\nThey are probably looking to see that you are flexible and handle change well.  Make sure you show interaction with colleagues so they see that you work through this with others.\n\nGood luck on the job!

One would think that a really crowded physical situation would have a negative effect on productivity- people require a certain amount of their own space in which to best perform the tasks. I would not be able to stand it if I felt cramped against someone else all day at work!

Let me tell you one (among many) thing that I hate about the corporate world: The Cube Farms.\n\nThey'll tell you the cube is the ideal work space where you get you own semi-privacy while being able to interact with your co-workers.\n\nIn reality, they just throw you in a box to condition your thinking and behaviour, to kill your creativity, and give themselves a better sense of control over individuals.
