Personally working for bureaucracy would affect my orientations to life in a positive way if the job was providing the human part to a job. Things such as child care this would be a huge plus for anyone in my position who has to pay for high cost childcare without the ease of checking in on your childcare during on breaks and lunch hours. It is referenced in our book that “this eases the strain on a parent, for while at work the can keep in touch with their own children.” This type of bureaucracy would work best to my advantage because I would be able to overall work better than in a more formal work environment. If I have job provided childcare I would be able to work longer productive days knowing my child is walking distance away. I would not be confined to hours of a childcare provider. I would be able to come in a hour earlier and stay an hour later with the ease of traveling to a childcare program or always worrying about my child. For a mother this takes a heavy burden off the shoulders of a working mom.
The other plus for working in a bureaucracy type of job is if the higher level manger had an active role in conflict resolution and worker empowerment. Companies have been trying to add the human factor to their company image for a while some fail while there are many that succeed. I believe with the added human to understand what makes a worker work better and then applying to the work environment would work best. I would work better and be confident with my end result if I knew I had a working team relationship with my fellow workers and higher executives. A more informal work environment works better because it’s not about orders and job titles it’s about getting the best end result possible for the task at hand.it is quoted in our books “employees in work teams are absent less work harder and are more productive.” This happens because people feel more connected to work and actually
