The one that makes the decision sees all workers as replaceable cogs and the managers that know which people are the good ones are not consulted. We call that the "foie gras" style of management.

Most of Amazon functions this way at this point. It didn’t used to be so bad, but things really went to shit with some belt tightening in 2017/2018 where management wasn’t thoughtful. It was more about networking than a meritocracy.
