Seems a bit much to me. When the Soviets put undesirables and political prisoners into gulags they didn't give them fabulous salaries and incredible perks.

I think the intent is for it to be over the top. Poking fun at something with excessive force with a catchy name works really well for branding. Works right in the meme culture.
