My vote - for many reasons
● define "work" - employment, it's my hobby, self-employed, work-aholic
● work contribution depends on organization, efficiency, team effort, colleagues
● my job has been electronic R&D, organization support, labor issues worker's council, medium level high quality product sales for Benelux, financial partner in family business and now self-employed.
● different environments, challenges and requirements for the job
● large dependence on organization, freedom in job fulfillment and self-initiative
● level of unions participating in corporations or industry
● presence of skilled labor, education level and investments
● job flexibility works both ways - positive and negative
● national culture and business history

IMHO - corporate leadership is responsible for failure, company as a whole should be recognized for gains in profitability. Period in sales gave me the insight the profits come after the investment of time, effort and diligence. When your predecessor did a lousy job in business relations, it just takes time to develop the market potential. After a good job, your successor harvests the benefits.
