I'm only posting this here before I end up forgetting because it's hilarious. I left a recently acquired retail job because the culture was terrible. I was a lead, and so I heard the conversations from management more than the average person.
The biggest bullshit I heard there was, “Every extra step costs the company $1000/$100,000/$1,000,000.” I forgot which one exactly it was, but even if it was $1000, that's just insane and bullshit on the most extreme level lol. They really want to pressure their workers to work like slaves. But yeah, I heard this from pretty much all of the managers.
