Nasty Nepotism
Around 40% of employees believe their work is affected by nepotism or favoritism towards family and friends. It’s not easy to see how nepotism can create resentment and a sense of unfairness among colleagues. It’s hard to feel like you’re being judged on your merits when your coworker’s the boss’s nephew!
I think nepotism is like a box of chocolates – you never know what you’ll get. Still, it’s probably not going to be fair. Workplaces rampant with nepotism are enough to make you want to run for the hills. We should all work to create a level playing field for everybody.
