I work in accounting for a large public company and was reviewing transactions over the past year – I noticed some changes in certain compensations types… Further investigation revealed about $1 million dollars paid to the incoming CEO just to fucking show up on the first day.

Hello everyone. I need some advice. Got fired few months ago for finally standing up to my “boss” during one of our 1:1. The issue was excessive micro-management and constant power plays from his side.
