Survey says Apple employees optimistic

Survey says Apple employees optimistic
on company�s future 03/30/2005 05:20 PM
Apple Computer employees are optimistic on their company's future, New York research firm Vault has found in new employee surveys on the computer giant. Says a former customer solutions specialist, "The business of the company is doing great especially with the iPod and their innovative designs. However just as any large corporation the large scale structure, the organization gets lost at the lower levels. The micromanagement needs to be but to a minimum and something needs to be done to increase retention and lower the turnover rate which is substantial." A project manager writes, "Apple has its challenges for market share, and will never compete directly with Dell or HP. Instead, the focus is on creativity and the Digital Hub. Products such as the iPod are keeping us profitable during the economic downturn. If Apple continues to develop innovative and quality products like the iPod, then the long term picture should be secure." Another project manager observes, "Apple today is just like any other conservative company. Just managed the service implementation for a new product we will announce at MacWorld 2005. This should be a good year for Apple but it will not reflect in my salary or any kind of bonus I dream of receiving." Vault's employee surveys give investors and jobseekers insight into the company's business operations. Neither Vault nor its employee surveys are endorsed by or affiliated with Apple Computer.

Photos of "robots" carrying signs written in binary code. They're marching to support underpaid and overworked teaching assistants in Madison, Wisconsin. Such thoughtful 'bots. Correction: BoingBoing reader Ryan Whaley says, "They weren't supporting the teachers' union, it just happened to be going on at the same time. They planned it weeks ahead of time. They're all members of the somethingawful forums."

Thanks, Bloggies! BB wins best group
bl0g, and bl0g of the year! 03/14/2005 05:29 PM
Xeni Jardin: Boing Boing pal Scott Beale informs us that our blog just won Group Weblog of the Year at the Bloggies. OMG! What a huge honor! Thank you, Bloggies. We honestly didn't expect this, and we are deeply moved and grateful. There were many other deserving blogs up for awards, backed by talented folks who work very hard, and we raise our collective pirate-eye-patches in their honor: check 'em all out. On behalf of my blog-mates Cory Doctorow, Mark Frauenfelder, and David Pescovitz; our wise "band manager" John Battelle; our sysadmin par excellence Ken Snider; and the rest of the team and extended family that makes Boing Boing possible -- a humble thank you. But most of all, we are grateful to you, our readers, for wasting otherwise productive time on our collective scrapbook of "wonderful things," and for pointing us to even more of those wonderful and undiscovered things each day. We're really sorry that we couldn't make it to SXSW in person to accept the award, but we hope you'll join us in celebrating in person tomorrow at ETCON ( all five of us will be in the same place for the first time). Boing Boing sprouted online a little over five years ago, from paper zine roots planted by Mark Frauenfelder and Carla Sinclair. It is a privilege to blog for you. With you, we look forward to another adventurous year of link-discuss to come. Link

Update: Holy crap! Reader Nathaneal Heasley sez, "Not only did BB win best group ‘blog, it won “blog of the year/best weblog overall” – congratulations!" For those keeping track, this is the second year in a row Boing Boing has received these two awards: Link to 2004, Link to 2005. Man. We're speechless, and overwhelmed by your generosity.

It's Buy Your Employees A PC Day In The

It's Buy Your Employees A PC Day In The
UK 01/19/2004 12:52 PM
Over in the UK they have some complicated regulations concerning incentives for helping companies help their employees buy computers. They're trying to make it easier with a set of guidelines that make the system clear. Companies can get a nice tax break for buying their employees home computers, which the employees can pay back over a three year period out of their salary. There's no indication in the article as to what happens if the employee leaves the company before the full amount has been paid. This seems like a good idea - assuming that it's the employees' (and not the employers') choice. Of course, some may cynically suggest that this is just a good way for companies to get their employees to keep on working while they're home.

The Next Threat: Employees 12/17/2004 06:43 PM

Companies step up monitoring of internal networks: Interesting article. If the hackers don't get you, your own employees will.

Executives don't want a repeat of what happened at America Online, where a former employee was arrested in June for allegedly stealing 92 million screen names and selling them.

Or at credit-software company Teledata Communications, where a former employee in September pleaded guilty to federal fraud charges of stealing the financial identities of tens of thousands of people.

Don't Just Spy On Employees, Bill Them
As Well

Don't Just Spy On Employees, Bill Them
As Well 02/01/2005 09:43 PM
While many studies have shown that spying on employees tends to make them less motivated and less productive, that still hasn't stopped any number of companies from coming out with tools to help show just how much you distrust your employees. The latest, however, goes a bit further than the usual reports of just what various employees have been doing while surfing the internet. This one tracks exactly how much time and bandwidth an employee uses on various websites so that an employer can bill the employee for that time. Do you think the companies that install this will also bill the employees for the amount of water they drink out of the water fountain? Maybe the wear and tear in the parking lot from driving their car into it each day as well would make sense. It's not clear why this needs to be repeated so often -- but such micromanaging of employees doesn't tend to do much good. If an employee isn't getting their job done, that's an issue that should be taken care of. However, monitoring what they're doing every minute of the day -- and then even stooping so low as to charge them for the time, is a plan that's only going to backfire. Hopefully, the first employee presented with such a bill will turn around and present a bill to the employer for any phone calls or emails handled at home as well as the time, gas and depreciation expenses of driving to work each day.
