Workplace friendships are like a double-edged sword. The benefits of a friendly workplace can be really positive, but organizations should be aware of the potential difficulties and how to manage friendships at work.

    职场友谊就像一把双刃剑。工作单位友好团结，绝对是件好事，但单位要意识到这种现象的潜在问题以及如何管理好这种友谊。

    Respondents also experienced a great deal of anxiety about speaking to close friends about substandard work. A basic rule of friendship is being non-judgemental and accepting your friends' weaknesses, but giving critical performance feedback conflicts with this.

    受访者表示，与好朋友谈论自己工作不达标的问题时心里也感到十分不安。友谊的一个基本原则是不评判朋友、接受他的缺点，而对朋友的工作表现提出批评性的反馈意见则与此相矛盾。
