My previous employer would print out those cringe success and team building story posts from linkedin and hang them around the office because we complained about the working environment, I love that there is good satire of those posts on linkedin now.
The more things change the more they stay the same. Before LinkedIn there were motivational posters that were hung around offices. It didn’t take long for the demotivational poster to make its way into the culture just like these posts are now.
My former employer had a stupid idea that alternating our stats and our company “core values” on tvs throughout the office was a good idea. Yeah, let’s just waste electricity on something no one wants to look at. I would just turn them off and say I valued conservation.
Edit: it helped that I’d long before loudly established that I hated when people left the light on in the server closet. The closet was right across from my desk so I noticed every time.
This dude is a god damn legend.
