Background
"Work is for a better life, not life just for work." In today's fast-paced, high-efficiency society, this sentence seems to have become a mantra for many people, but how many people can really do it? In May 2024, a live broadcast remark by Baidu Vice President Xuan Jing undoubtedly dropped a bombshell on this issue and sparked widespread discussion in society.
Xuan Jing, an executive who once held an important position in Huawei, and then moved to Baidu, with an annual salary of more than 10 million, her career can be said to be glamorous and enviable. However, he is such a master in the workplace, but he seems to be quite "unforgiving" in dealing with the relationship between employees and work.
The result of this remark was that Baidu evaporated 6 billion, and Xuan Jing responded: I am a part-time worker, what does it have to do with me
In the live broadcast, her statement was simple and rude: "The employee broke up, I approve it in seconds, why should I consider the employee's family, I only care about whether he can deliver the results to me in a timely manner in his position." Such remarks can't help but make people ask, is this kind of management attitude fair? Is it true that the success of a company is only related to results, and has nothing to do with the emotions and lives of employees?
In the context of this event, we can't help but think about whether the current corporate culture and management model really meet the development needs of modern society. Can a company that only focuses on results, regardless of the emotions and lives of employees, truly go long-term? After all, every leap of the enterprise is inseparable from the employees behind it. As the old saying goes, "the people are the foundation of the state", and employees are also the foundation of the enterprise. So, what will happen to an enterprise that ignores its "roots" in the future?
Xuan Jing's remarks caused an uproar on the Internet. Many people could not believe that a veteran publicist could make such a reckless statement in public.
Not only that, according to the feedback of internal employees, this kind of "high-pressure policy" is no longer unique in Baidu. In fact, this results-oriented management style has penetrated all levels of the company.
Let's take a closer look at the direct consequences of Tranquility's management style. The personal lives of employees have been greatly affected. There are reports that a female employee has a crisis in her relationship with her boyfriend because she has been on a business trip for more than 50 consecutive days, and in the face of the employee's troubles, Xuan Jing's response is extremely indifferent: "I'm not your mother-in-law, if you care so much about your boyfriend, if you can't stand it, you can resign, and I will approve it in seconds." This disregard for employees' private lives not only causes psychological pressure on employees, but also disregards their personalities.
Xuan Jing is also a combination of words and deeds, and she does what she says! Robin Li: Batch in seconds!
Although she sees the concept of "wolf culture" as a positive fighting spirit, it has actually evolved into a management style that is extremely demanding on employees. She requires employees to turn on their mobile phones 24 hours a day and be on call, almost taking their personal time for themselves. This practice not only deprives employees of their well-deserved rest and personal time, but also seriously distorts the work-life balance, leaving employees under tremendous mental and physical stress.
The controversy caused by Tranquility's management style is not an isolated case, but touches on a common problem in many enterprises today. While pursuing efficiency and performance, the importance of humane management and employee well-being is neglected. Employees are not machines, they have their own emotions and lives, if the enterprise just blindly asks, does not give proper care and support, will eventually lead to a large loss of employees, and even affect the long-term development of the enterprise.
Although Xuan Jing's statement was tough, it also caused a strong backlash from some employees. It is reported that some employees initiated a discussion on Xuan Jing's remarks on social platforms, and they asked rhetorically in Xuan Jing's words: "Why should I care about the life and death of the company, I just need to finish the work during my work, why should I answer the call of customers and bosses when I get off work?" This ironic approach, while emotional, undoubtedly reflects employees' dissatisfaction and protests against the current working environment.
The climax of the story takes place in a small protest organized by employees themselves. Employees collectively submitted a proposal to the human resources department to improve the working environment and management methods. They require companies to value work-life balance and not just see employees as tools to get things done.
In the face of the collective action of employees, Xuan Jing's initial attitude was dismissive, believing that it was just a few people's emotional venting. However, as more and more voices of support joined in, including the acquiescence of some senior managers, Xuan Jing had to revisit the issue. In the end, under the dual effect of internal pressure and external public opinion, Xuan Jing publicly apologized and promised to improve its management methods and pay more attention to the feelings and suggestions of employees.
This incident not only changed Xuanjing's attitude towards employees, but also caused the entire enterprise and even the industry to reflect deeply on corporate culture and management methods. It is a warning to all businesses, especially those in the fast-growing tech industry, that they must balance the well-being and development of their employees while pursuing efficiency and effectiveness.
Although the turmoil surrounding Xuan Jing finally ended with her apology and promise of improvement, the discussion and reflection it triggered are far from over. It's not just a question of personal management style, it's also a question of modern corporate culture. How to maintain a healthy and harmonious working environment in the fierce market competition, and how to balance efficiency and humanity are the topics that every enterprise must face.
The truth is revealed when you see this!
The company registered in her name is in April, is it a long-term plan?
After watching her Douyin fans, a video with more than 1 million followers, I have to wonder her motives, who criticized whom in the end?
"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools." Employees are the foundation of enterprise development, and their happiness and satisfaction are directly related to the productivity and innovation ability of enterprises. The example of Xuan Jing is a wake-up call for all managers!
