On March 5, an Alibaba employee posted a long article "To Ali", madly complaining about Ali. The main points:
——The 996 blessing proposed by Jack Ma is not a blessing for employees, but a blessing for the company;
——On the one hand, the company brainwashed its employees to devote themselves to the company, but on the other hand, the remuneration and welfare of the employees cannot keep up with the requirements of the employees;
——The company also has serious sales anxiety, thinking that employees have to endure hardships in order to be good, and if employees live too well, employees cannot grow;
……
The central idea of Tucao:
Ali is too hypocritical, "You don't want me to be lazy, but you can't make me love you while smoking me."
【Current Review】
This article "To Ali" touches on very deep issues, and the writing level is very average; the staff's identity is very strong, and the said slot is a bit vacant... Just like Ali itself, this article is also full of contradictions. We present this contradiction in the form of debate below.
Red party point of view: the author is talking nonsense
Black point of view: the author is right
first round:
Red side: There are a lot of people red right and wrong, and many companies have red right and wrong. This time, it’s just that former Ali employees made personal and malicious complaints. There was no “lift-off dismissal” like Huya, and no employee died suddenly after working overtime in the early morning like Pinduoduo. However, as long as it is scolding Ali, as long as the employee scolds Ali, Someone just watched.
Black: Ask the opposing defense friend to answer the allegations in the article "To Ali".
second round:
Hong Fang: As a former employee, on the one hand, he admits that he has grown up in Ali, and that Ali has not violated labor laws or infringed his legal rights and interests. Such treatment of former employers is a problem of character.
Black: Ask the opposing defense friend to answer the allegations in the article "To Ali".
The third round:
Hong Fang: The author of "To Ali" left his own WeChat account at the end of the article, and his self-hype intention is obvious.
Black: Ask the opposing defense friend to answer the allegations in the article "To Ali".
Fourth round:
Hong Fang: The opponent's opponent has been avoiding his own character problems, and we can understand it. After all, a person who does nothing, avenge revenge, self-hype, and speak frivolously—people like Cao*jin also have the right to point out Ali’s mistakes, as long as Ali is true. There are those wrong.
Black: How can Ali clearly say that the author is doing nothing wrong? The author has also paid for Ali. How can he unilaterally say that Ali is kind to the author? The author is not a celebrity and does not want to be a celebrity. Ask the other party to stop tagging their hats in the Cultural Revolution style. Still the same sentence: Ask the opposing defense friend to answer the allegations in the article "To Ali".
Fifth round:
Hong Fang: The author’s posting of big-character posters is not the Cultural Revolution. Our exposing of its bad nature has turned into the Cultural Revolution. The opponent's defensive friends really will double standards. We pointed out the author’s problems such as doing nothing, ignoring gratitude, self-hype, etc., precisely to illustrate that the author did not accuse Ali out of public heart.
Specific to its core point of view:
"You don't want me to be lazy, but you can't make me love you while smoking me."
As any company facing fierce competition, it is natural for employees to work hard, and the author cannot deny this. The author just believes that Ali patronizes and urges employees, but the real benefits have not kept up. I want to ask Author:
——The company makes employees work hard and does not motivate them ideologically. Does it rely on insults and punishments? It is better to let you love me and make you work harder than hitting you with a whip. The author can accuse Ali of violating labor laws, but he cannot accuse Ali of using corporate culture to infect people.
Hei Fang: I agree with the author's accusation: the money is not enough, the benefits are not in place, and it is hypocritical to talk about the corporate culture. Jack Ma externally advocated increasing the salary of grassroots employees, but did not actually increase it; if he had time to save the elephants, he had no time to care about the grassroots employees. What is hypocrisy?
Sixth round:
Hong Fang: The sky is not high, people's hearts are the highest, what does it mean to give enough money?
It is impossible for every employee to be satisfied with the treatment. The vast majority of Ali did not resign, indicating that most of Ali's dissatisfaction with the treatment did not reach the level stated by the author.
This is not to say that Ali employees should not be dissatisfied. But to be honest, instead of caring about Alibaba's grassroots employees, it is better to care about the employees of small and medium-sized enterprises, whose overall difficulty level is much higher than that of Alibaba's employees.
Black: Please don't secretly change the concept, we are now talking about Ali employees. According to the author's personal experience, Ali "spontaneously speaks for words". You don't believe it. Don't you know better than the author?
Seventh round:
Hong Fang: If you come to any former Ali employee and say that Ali is "spontaneous", you will believe it. You are really as naive as the author. The overall remuneration level of Ali employees cannot be based on what a former employee who has an ill-conceived old boss said, it depends on big data. Dare your opponents dare to say that the overall treatment of Ali employees is lower than the overall treatment of Chinese SMEs?
Black: Ali is different from ordinary small and medium-sized enterprises. Many small and medium-sized enterprises do not have money, and Ali does not distribute it to employees when they make money. Jack Ma externally advocated increasing the salary of the grassroots employees, but did not actually increase it; there is no time to save the elephants, but no time to care about the grassroots employees. This is not hypocrisy.
Eighth round:
Hong Fang: You think that you haven't given enough money and talking about corporate culture is hypocritical. So if you were the general manager of Ali today, would you give each employee a salary increase of 5000? A salary increase is a complicated matter. It is a systematic project. If a salary increase is arbitrary, an enterprise's assessment and incentive system may collapse. Several economists have generously suggested that China learn from the United States and give the people cash. Why doesn't China learn? Because it is discovered that gold will eventually be earned by the rich, will increase the fiscal deficit, and will encourage the lazy people to "wait and depend"... the opponent's defender and the author who is poor in thinking and only knows how to show off unskilled rhetoric Similarly, one cannot see the essence when looking at the problem.
Black: Ali claims to have the most complete employee evaluation and incentive system. As long as Ali wants to improve employee benefits, he only needs to increase the total employee salary budget and divide the proportion of grassroots employees. If he wants to distribute the money fairly, he must do it. What I got was that the shareholders refused to make the announcement. In recent years, Jack Ma and his team have been kidnapped by capital more and more deeply. From the general manager Jiang Fan who dared not to dismiss his lover in violation of the rules, to the incident of “Ma has already served” publicly speaking for the capital, we can see a clear path of degeneration. . Therefore, the author's accusation is just a natural reaction of the small employees under this general background. I believe the author's experience is true.
Ninth round:
Hong Fang: In this world, there is no shortage but unevenness. It sounds cool to give grass-roots employees a crazy salary increase, but it is against the laws of the economy. Ma Yun cared about elephants, but he was simply and rudely interpreted as not caring about employees. You can raise your salary. What is the elephant's business? People are really afraid of being famous and afraid of being strong.
As a public figure, Ma Yun's words and deeds attract people's attention. However, most people, including you and me, are just watching leopards and blind people touching elephants. What is the real situation, it is best not to jump to conclusions.
Take the “Ma has served” incident as an example. The media claimed that it was because Jack Ma’s speech criticizing financial supervision annoyed the regulators and blocked the listing of Ant Financial. However, people in the real professional circle know that the relevant authorities cannot be because of Ma Yun’s comments. In a few words, such an important decision was made hastily, and this decision has long been made. The opposing defense friend looked at the author's article with the mentality of looking at the cool articles on the Internet, and thought that such articles reflected the real situation, and only laughed.
Black: The opposing defense friend said as if he knew a lot of inside information. In fact, we have seen through the truth about your paper tigers, and you don't know more than netizens. If you want to wear the crown, you must bear the weight. Jack Ma knows that he is a public figure, so don't just talk about raising the salary of grassroots employees. After saying this, Ali does not do it himself, what do other companies think? Do you all learn Fudge Dafa from Ma Yun? Ali employees are disappointed, this is inevitable.
Tenth round:
Leave it to netizens.
Judges' comments
1. The contradiction between labor and capital is one of the most important contradictions of an enterprise and a society.
2. An enterprise is a contradiction between feelings and capital. The larger the enterprise, the greater the possibility of this contradiction.
3. However, this kind of contradiction is not completely irreconcilable. Within a certain period of time, through the guidance of the state, the self-discipline of capital (if any), and the efforts of employees (must have), the contradiction between labor and capital can be controlled to a reasonable intensity. Inside. This requires the joint efforts of both labor and management.
4. Among the grassroots employees in non-management and non-marketing positions in enterprises, the hourly wage system is implemented for voting with their feet, and there is no need to force overtime or brainwashing to induce overtime, and employees will not have the anger of being fooled similar to the author of this article in the future.
5. Speaking of this, I suddenly understood the author. He joined the 996 army because he was brainwashed, and then found that it was not the case, so the young man became angry.
6. The boss uses the hourly wage system, no swearing or brainwashing, and employees decide whether to work overtime.
Employees accept hourly wages, work more, earn more, and work overtime voluntarily, so they don’t have to be angry in the future.
