Motivating and practicing favoritism are not the same when it comes to dealing with workers in a company. Some managers thought that their subordinates can feel if treating their co-worker so special. It can demoralize this person and co-workers would have different notions against him or her. It should be called their attention when doing this special treatment with workers under them.

Even though for some reasons, some bosses have personal preference for some staff but you don't have to let it show as an organizational leader.

I am not in favor with this system. I might voice out my concern directly to the supervisor or manager. It is not acceptable for me to endure this situation or this kind of favoritism.
The truth is that you really can't do anything about the situation of the owner of the organization decides to have favorites. It is a normal human attribute of you try to fight it, you would lose your job.
Yes ! There's absolutely nothing you can do if the owner of the company decide to favour one person than the other.
Even parents favor some kids more than others. The one challenge is if it leads to victimization of the other staff. If it is just occasional perks and tips, it is absolutely nothing wrong.
The management of the company should try as possible not to include favoritism in their mode of operation.
It has always been a common thing to see a boss having a soft spot for an employer and sometimes they don't even realize it as I feel it is something that just happens when you are human.
As much as it is not wise to have any favorites at work especially as a boss, in most cases if you do not it doesn't seem noticeable then you should have no issues. If you can help it thought I would refrain from having favorites just in case of issues.

This is true, especially big companies with various workers
The moment you start showing favoritism and partialism at your workplace as the owner, it is going to affect the morale of the entire staff working for you and it will decrease their productivity.

Indeed. I am sure that the employees will be demotivated to work in the company. It is not a good thing to practice this because these people will not respect their higher-ups for being one. Although it does happen in the real world.
Favoritism is very common at work and this is one of the reason why some employees tender their resignation because they feel that the company is just focusing on a single person or employee.
I think it is quite natural for a boss to favor some workers over others. But the boss should not let favoritism to affect the fairness of job performance assessment.
