Cool post, I've seen shit like that first hand in a telco.
BTW this sort of complain always makes me wonder why companies are so bad at managing incentives.
Good ideas I've seen in the hedge fund industry:
- If your employee gives you shares, you cannot sell them for X years.
- If you're a partner and you're paid dividends, you must reinvest those.
- If you leave, you can't work in the same industry for X years.
There are more examples, but the idea is that it's important to make the long term finances of core stakeholders heavily tied to the long term success of the company itself. If you're not doing that, people will exploit the system sooner or later.
