Currently going through this. I loathe my company and its higher ups. Crisis after crisis after crisis. Never any acknowledgement, let alone reward.

My company offers two free mental health consultations. Per year. Also in the midst of a "we care!" campaign.

No you don't. In fact the opposite.

Sometimes I wish I worked for the Mafia. At least then we wouldn't have to pretend anyone cares about doing the right thing.

Who's more honest about their organization being a family, the Mafia or a corporation?

The mafia, no doubt about it. Fuck corporations. I'll believe in corporate personhood the fucking moment Texas ecutes one.

The mattress is literally called "The Family". As for how honest that is, idk how nepotistic they are.

Though that could go for big companies too. "When we said 'We're a family here', we meant upper management, not you."
