Do people who work for non-profit organizations differ from those who work at for-profit companies when it comes to personal job satisfaction? Separate random samples were collected by a polling agency to investigate the difference. Data collected from 417 employees at non-profit organizations revealed that 373 of them were "highly satisfied." From the for-profit companies, 446 out of 498 employees reported the same level of satisfaction. If this information is to be used to make inferences about all people who work at non-profits and for-profit companies, what conditions must be met before proceeding? List them and explain if they are met.
Select all that apply.
A. The Randomization Condition is not met, because the samples are not random.
B. The Independent Groups Assumption cannot be assumed, because the samples are not random.
C. The Success/Failure Condition is met, because each group has at least ten people who are satisfied and ten who are not.
D. The 10% Condition is met, because each sample is far less than 10% of all for-profit or non-profit employees.
E. The Randomization Condition is met, because the samples are random.
F. The Independent Groups Assumption must be assumed to be correct.
G. The 10% Condition is not met, because one sample is more than 10% of all employees.
H. The Success/Failure Condition is not met, because one group has fewer than 10 people who are not satisfied.

There are many different ways in which firms can organize themselves: There are flat organizations and there are tall organizations. There are organizations structured by products, divisions, and geography. But one thing nearly all structures have in common is a chain of command, or hierarchy. Do companies have to set up that way? Tony Hsieh doesn’t think so. Hsieh is the CEO of Zappos, the online seller of shoes. Hsieh is a guy who thinks outside of the box. When...

After all, General Electric is repeatedly in the top of Fortune magazine's "Most Admired” companies, and Enron will go down in history as one of the greatest failures and financial scandals in U.S. corporate history. So why would we mention both of these firms together? Because the fact is that throughout the 1990s and into the early 2000s, these companies actually approached their...

In structurally complex organizations with many job titles but very few occupants, the number of years needed to pay back the money invested in a complex selection system almost always justifies its initial expense 3.
