The fire soon fire often ideology is stupid advice for anything but a small startup. The reason it's stupid advice is that you already have a bunch of people that over time will develop their own politics in the organization, and they will then exercise power in the organization using that politics. For instance the developers will figure out ways of working less by overestimating everything or forcing project managers to do additional work to delay things, and any new developer that does not get the games that they are playing will be denied enough information by the lead developer to do his job properly and will be promptly fired for that. Any new comer that does not adhere to their politics will be fired. All that this sort of advice does is it maintains cultures, whether they are positive or negative. Good team players can get kicked out to maintain the rotten apples or vice verse and often upper management is clueless to what's actually going on.
