It has both side effect, in one side ( Positive ) it can be great motivator to skilled employee who put their special way in work place to develop the process. On the other side, it has negative impact on other employee who would fill unfair/ unmotivated. 

 

In my perspective, it's very good tool IF the managers know exactely how/when to use it, with consideration of others. ( Create reward program specialized in Creative Work )

i do believe that making mistakes is an effective way to develop ourselves; yet in working , hiding others' mistakes is somehow acceptable if we could manage to find a solution as quickly as possible. it perhaps work for those active and loyal employees not all.

Favours between employees are very dangerous to the growth and profit maximization of any company. For example, if employees favour each other in the case of theft, the company will start working on a deficit and in a long run the company may crumble.

Favourism is a Human nature, hence more it benefits individuals, the more it creates perceptions about how to grow in an organization. It definitely helps small teams if the favourism is linked to merit and dilligence but if it is linked to inefficient habits, opportunist individuals will spend more time to impress through context rather then content which hampers efficiency of the organisation.
