Organizations tend to swing between Functional structure (you report to someone who used to have a job like yours) and Project Management or divisional structure (you report to someone who is coordinating your efforts with those of other folks not like you).

Bad faith (Latin: mala fides) is a sustained form of deception which consists of entertaining or pretending to entertain one set of feelings while acting as if influenced by another.[1] It is associated with hypocrisy, breach of contract, affectation, and lip service.[2] It is not to be confused with heresy (faith which deviates from orthodoxy). It may involve intentional deceit of others, or self-deception... In philosophy, after Jean-Paul Sartre's analysis of the concepts of self-deception and bad faith, the latter concept has been examined in specialized fields as it pertains to self-deception as two semi-independently acting minds within one mind, with one deceiving the other. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bad_faith (more)
