# Managerial ranks - Each manager must have around five reports, maximum 10. - Too many reports cannot be properly helped: when it reaches 10, promote 2 and . - Too few reports create needless red tape. - A title without the size to back it is just pompous. - Rising and falling must be very fluid, and disconnected from wages. - Promotions are elected from the N+1 based on peer feedback. Demotions, from the N+2 based on report feedback.
