Is this really a surprise though? If you want to make as much money as possible, one way is by cutting spending, wages, food, hardware, whatever you can. I don't agree with this, though it is hardly surprising when companies do this, even more so when large companies do it.
The article mentions employees receiving half a bagel instead of a full bagel at one meeting, but how many people actually eat a full bagel? Sounds like a great way to reduce food waste and promote healthy caloric intake.
I have a friend at Amazon Studios who is at the top executive level. It sure the exact name, but was coming from an EVP title at a competing studio. Found out when traveling internationally Amazon would not allow for Business Class.
Interesting take. I’ve not heard that perspective. I never once that it odd that a VP gets to take business class. Seems like a reasonable perk. If the company is going to ask that you spend 10 hours in a plane, the lease they can do is spring for a scent experience.
Not sure where those people worked but we do not have to share chargers lol. Just scan your badge and get one. Why do you need two chargers anyway? Just take the one with you.
