If your bosses are pushing for “quantity over quality,” you might want to freshen up your resume and start applying for other jobs. Why? Well, firstly it’s an indicator that they don’t care about the product they’re putting out. You can produce a product quickly and have it still be a good product. As they say, you can have something that is made quickly, cheaply, or high-quality, and you can pick two of those options. If you want something good done fast, it’ll cost you. If you want lots of things done cheaply and fast, that’s going to make the product’s quality suffer a bit. It’s always a dilemma for bosses, who want to save money and get the most bang for their buck. For employees, this might translate to rushing around and turning in shoddy work just to make their deadlines.Â
If you work hard to gain your job position, you probably want to make a difference in your field.
