Mushroom House

A housing development that seems to appear overnight. The name comes from the fact that it looks like a bunch of mushrooms grew while you were sleeping.

A bunch of mushroom houses sprang up in what was once a corn field last week.

An old, time-honored management technique in large corporations.

3. When they grow up, cut them off at the roots.

mushroom management

A way to manage tech teams working to an ill-defined task, described by Tracy Kidder as "Keep them in the dark, feed them shit, watch them grow" (in his 1981 title 'The Soul of a New Machine' about the people that built the first minicomputer at Data General).

As long as the outcome remains undefined, there's no way to hold them accountable for whichever result. You'd better apply mushroom management instead.
