This critical ethnographic study of knowledge workers and
knowledge-intensive organization workplaces focuses on the issues
of timing and schedules, the perception of formality and trust and
distrust in software development as well as motivation and
occupational identity among software engineers. The book is a
cross-cultural, comparative study of American and European
high-tech workplaces that addresses the issues currently of
interest to both Academia and to practice and provides a rare
international comparison of organizations from both sides of the
Atlantic. Its conclusions shed new light on the problems typical
for software projects. The book specifically focuses on, and gives
voice to, the perspectives of knowledge workers rather than
managers and will thus be useful to not only scholars and human
resource managers from software companies, but also to high-tech
professionals. Scholars and professionals in organization studies,
management, HRM, innovation and knowledge management will find this
book engaging and enlightening.
