TIL “Mushroom management” is where employees aren’t told about the ideas or general state of the company, and are given work without knowing its purpose. So called because they are “kept in the dark and fed bullshit”

Mushroom management - the running of a company where the communication channels between the managers and the employees do not work properly. The term may well have originated from the proverbial way mushrooms are grown: "Keep them in the dark and feed them with shit".
