If a company hires someone without the explicit defined need for the position, people filling such a role will tend to find themselves routine busywork without much value in an attempt to create a perceived need that is being filled by themselves. If this gets repeated a few times, the result is a company where the productive capacity of the few is complimented by unproductive busywork. The two can become indistinguishable to the unknowing CEO or management team. This is a tendency of small companies that find highly profitable products that are very difficult to duplicate or are protected by patent. A small portion of employees generate wealth and carry a bloated band of useless production. Often in the form of quality, charts, record keeping, QA/QC functions, Documentation functions, audit prep, etc..... The generation of over regulation makes this unneeded burden difficult to discern from real productive capacity.
