advancement vs. DISadvancement

What is an ADVANCEMENT?

Have people working around the clock and making sure they got things done?
Bringing new fresh bodies, doing extra working hours with no specific outcome?
Paying people big money (or management thought so) and not acknowledging that they too have personal lives, ie. are not machines?

If all the above questions' answers is no, but in reality it happens, then it appears more to be a disadvancement.

Results?
Everybody does everything, which creates duplication of work (which can be confusing and create embarassment), ie. inefficiency.
No focus on work. No clear priority.
Everybody gets exhausted, bored, and at the end lost interest in what seems to be more like intellectual slavery.

Then again, aren't we all (if not most) wage slave?
