1. What is your reaction to this “no attendance” plan implemented at TechTarget? Do you believe it’s too simplistic? Defend your position.
As I Analyze the company’s strategy, I think it is a good way of developing their employee’s self control . if the employees will not do their part, of course they know what will be the consequences of their action. Giving them the freedom is advantage of the workers, the employees will not be too stress with their work. If I will be the employee I will do my part in the company, if I’m done with my work, then I can have the rest that I want. Even though the company is giving them the freedom, they have a goal to meet quarterly, or else they will be terminated.
2. Do you believe that such an employee policy as described in the case can succeed in other companies? Why or why not?
It depends on the company’s working style. Because these policy cannot be applied to all types of company. For example; School- of course the teachers are not allowed to just come and go to the school whenever they want. Online jobs- these kind of job usually don’t have time limit, but if you will not meet the quota or something needed by the company, of course you might have a lesser salary or worse you will not be working anymore in the company. Still, these kind of policy really needs serious self control of the employee or discipline upon his/her work. Hence, these policy is a risk and need reliable and honest employees that can work that kind of policy with less supervision.
