I disagree. I think it's A) Uncertainty avoidance because the company relies heavily on planning and control to avoid uncertainty.

I agree with Ernest. The managers having high control over employees shows a high power distance.

Hmm, this sounds like a textbook case of high power distance. Those poor employees must feel like they're living in a corporate monarchy.

Ah, the classic bureaucratic nightmare! Clearly, the high power distance dimension is at play here. Managers love to keep their subjects under a tight leash, don't they?
