Yeah. The company didn't pay especially well, so it was important to keep people, and new hiring was always painful.
Rigorous Honesty is critical in my management. I need to be honest with myself, my superiors, my coworkers, and my employees.
It's quite possible to keep things confidential without lying. I've done it for many years.
Another drawback of my style, is the employees become loyal to me, not the company. If I had left, they probably would have lost the whole team, fairly quickly. The company didn't seem to mind that.
