Tl;dr:
"I don’t want to hear feedback. Just do your job.”
“We value you. But a promotion isn’t in the cards right now.”“
"This is on a need-to-know basis. Information will be shared when the time is right.”
“We can talk about compensation at the next review.”
"We need to fill this role. Let’s not share those details with candidates.”
"I called you last night at 9:00 p.m. Why didn’t you answer?”
"We don’t have time for fun.”
Honestly, it’s missing the following gems…
“We are looking for an industry leading ninja…”
“We’re a work hard, play hard team/company”
“Fast paced work environment”
“We are family here”
I would also add any sort of variation of “at this job, we’re like a family!”
A Manson family
“Industry leading ninja” is so cringey. It’s like a very out of touch old guy trying sound relevant. I AM an old guy so I have some knowledge here. 😀
Ninja, literally, “invisible”, or perhaps generously, “spy” is such an insane term for a business to use anyway.
It connotates someone who is willing to break the law - kill if necessary- to bring down the opposition. Not someone connecting a new API node for Slack notifications
They probably actually mean Stakhanovite, but wouldn’t bring themselves to use a communist term (/s).
News just doesn’t mean what it used to
Sorry, I couldn’t find a better sub. It’s like misc news I guess? So I just posted it up hoping to get some decent chatter going in the comments.
Lemmy users hate these 5 weird tricks for boosting engagement
lmao I guess so huh? I don’t know man. I appreciate just having a few simple subs and posting to them though. I think thats what I was really getting at. I got the news article from google news and thought Id share it.
Companies that are or feel they are doing big things in the world give you a spiel about being part of something big and you should be proud and being part of such an amazing company is worth it even if there may be less compensation than might be possible at another company or other industry.
I can’t parse this into anything meaningful.
Companies that feel they are “important” treat their employees like shit
Yep, and tell you you should be proud of it.
Ha ya I had a bit of trouble getting that out.
