With the growth of the box office, "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop!".The discussion also began to rise all the way, but the focus of the discussion among netizens was "The acting is too realistic, but unfortunately there is no such ending in reality".
For migrant workers, the end of the year is an exciting and frightening existence.
The first is the year-end bonus, which represents the company's affirmation of employees in the past year, which can not be changed. The most interesting but very social annual meeting is completely based on the boss's mood in terms of holding it, but no matter how big or small, it is inevitable that a small number of people will perform on stage.
If you have to give the annual meeting a formula, it must be "annual meeting = the boss's passionate speech + the staff's paddling performance + a grand but perfunctory prize".
At present, the annual annual meeting is approaching, and those who have experienced and have not experienced the annual meeting, how many painful masks do they have in the face of the annual meeting?
Little Red Book "Local Fame - Beauty".
First, the workers were dragged to the stage by force
It is reported that the annual meeting is the result of China's banquet culture over the past thousand years.
In ancient times, the emperor liked to entertain his ministers in the palace with a large banquet, and the purpose was divided into two purposes, one was to show the wealth of the country;The second is to win people's hearts. From the day of the birth of the "banquet", the component of "meeting" is greater than that of "banquet", which is probably an important factor in the transmission of the culture of the annual meeting.
However, after thousands of years of development, the annual meeting has undergone significant changes in modern society.
Migrant workers who have experienced the annual meeting will know that today's annual meeting is no longer just a dinner for the purpose of collective celebration, but a performance event to realize and consolidate the core values of the enterprise.
Therefore, in addition to the leader's speech at the annual meeting, the most interesting thing is the program performance and the first link. Because people are accustomed to the thinking mode of various stimulation and satisfaction, in the planning of the annual meeting, the program performance has also become a fixed link to shape the excitement of life out of thin air.
However, often at this time, it is a rare opportunity for people who need to cash out, and for i people who just want to eat silently, it has become the most embarrassing time, especially for the team "**" or the leadership of the "designated" performance program, for most of the workers who lack the potential of social cattle, it is even more miserable.
Because this is precisely the scariest part of the annual meeting - you have to be there, and you have to be forced to participate and can't refuse.
Therefore, only if we enter the word "annual meeting" on social platforms, the search bar recommends all of them are "annual meeting programs", "annual meeting performances", "annual meeting songs" and other pushes about annual meeting performances, which shows that the annual meeting has made most of the workers frown.
The most important thing is that most of the dances sung on stage at the annual meeting every year must be the Internet celebrity dances and Internet celebrity songs on the short ** platform in that year.
For example, just like "Wolf Disco" is indispensable in 2020, there is a high probability that "Subject 3" will be indispensable this year.
Coupled with the boss's spicy annual meeting site that was built after burning a lot of money, it is actually the KTV-style sound and lighting of the 18-line town, the host of the wedding emcee, and the lengthy and terrible activity process.
In addition to these, migrant workers not only have to work overtime after work to rehearse and edit**, but even need to buy performance costumes at their own expense. At the same time, in an annual meeting, the leader must not be very hard, but also the protagonist of the party, and someone must pour wine and toast, which is simply a "one-stop service" experience card for workers from heaven.
What makes the workers even more suffocating is that sometimes even if they win the first prize of the annual meeting program, the bonus basically has to be confiscated.
As a result, most of the annual meeting will not be very exciting, but in addition to "embarrassing", there must also be "soil", in short, the final situation must be a migrant worker who has not experienced the annual meeting, which can never be imagined.
By the way, there is also an indiscriminate spiritual PUA, which is firmly poured into everyone's eyes and brains.
At nearly 12 o'clock in the morning, when you think that this "farce" is finally over, the actual annual meeting that costs people and money and is meaningless has just begun in your career, and it will be tossed and turned again and again year after year.
It's not so much a reward for employees as an end-of-year meal as it is a year-end obedience test.
Second, workers really don't need annual meetings
In fact, to put it bluntly, standing in the position of the leader, the leader can see the entire "team", so as long as there is such a way to bring dozens of you together, it will definitely not be let go, not to mention that it will become a large-scale "party" in a year.
At this time, you can't run when you are told to go, you can't go to the west, even if you know that the content is demented and meaningless, you still have to complete all the instructions with a happy appearance, which is the goal of the leader has been achieved.
The worst thing is that some companies will also have very detailed requirements for the content of the annual meeting, such as what to wear, what the details of the dance are, etc., in short, the purpose is not only to make the scene more lively, but also to hope to give the top boss to see the performance of their department.
In the final analysis, it is not important that everyone has fun, everyone has no fun, but they still dare not have opinions, and the most important thing is to successfully complete the performance and let the above see their results.
In addition, the workers in the performance program are not miserable, only more miserable, and they will miss the link of grabbing red envelopes in the process of waiting for the performance, the program performance, etc.
What's more, most of the time, even the ** link is not up to people. For example, in the most exciting link, some companies are not worry-free, thinking of ways not to let people win awards, even if they get the "special prize", it is also full of routines.
Therefore, the consensus of the workers is actually not only to make money, but also to resist the annual meeting.
According to the "2023 Year-end Employee Expectation Survey Report" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report") released by Lagou Recruitment on November 30, 2023, 54% of the interviewed employees in first-tier cities do not expect to hold an annual meeting.
Among them, 47% of the surveyed professionals consider themselves to be "i-people" and do not like to participate in activities33% of the surveyed professionals are reluctant to attend the annual meeting due to the insulator attribute of the winner;29% of the surveyed professionals avoided the annual meeting because it was always mandatory to have a programTwenty-four percent of the surveyed professionals lost expectations because the annual meeting was equivalent to a disguised meeting.
Finally, another 17% of the surveyed professionals believe that the annual meeting takes up their personal time.
Therefore, for workers, chicken blood and painting cakes are useless, so what everyone cares about is naturally the real benefits, and no matter how loud the slogan is, it is better to take an extra day off and add a little more salary.
Of course, there are still companies that have a good annual meeting.
For example, some netizens said that the form of the annual meeting of the company they stayed in was that everyone gathered in the conference room, ate some snacks, listened to the boss and the big leaders blowing water, chatted about the company's recent situation and future prospects, and finally issued a year-end bonus, so that the form of the annual meeting was over.

Some netizens said, "The company's annual meeting is full of leaders singing red songs, as if they have come to ** TV station", "Most of the programs are produced by the group's art troupe, which not only improves the grade, but also reduces the burden"...
However, in the final analysis, there are still a few humanized annual meetings, and the annual meetings that put aside the feelings of workers are still the majority.
