Uh, this is basically real news though. Even just this week my company asked why people aren't taking risks and submitting "side projects" and what they don't want to hear is "because four rounds of layoffs in a year has absolutely crushed anyone's willingness to do so?"
sure I am gonna devote whatever little time left to myself to do side projects for you so that you increase your chances of stumbling upon a new innovation that will make you even more rich. solid idea.
And if that project fails, you're fired.
And if that project succeeds, it is much harder for the corporation to take ownership of it.
