It is an open secret that it is about self service instead of actual fiscal obligations. It is essentially the exact same thing as government corruption. It happens in every large and powerful organization essentially.

Which brings to mind the irony of how very stereotypically corporate the USSR acted with things like attributing the entire output of a coal mine to one miner to boost their productivity figures and circular shipping coal on trains to boost their transported coal metrics.

Yes... their contracts are written such that they align the self-serving motivations of the employees with the fiscal obligations to shareholders. Internet points be-damned, i find it pretty hilarious that ppl took my initial comment as being supportive of what Google did rather than a condemnation of their coporate structure!

Whose contracts? The board of directors don't have contracts; they aren't employed by the corporation. The shareholders don't have contracts; they just own an instrument of corporate ownership. Anyone employed by the corporation has contracts with the corporation, not with the board and the shareholders.

Other than your repeated assertions and slandering of anyone who disagrees with you as "SJWs", do you have anything to back you up?
