It's even worse than that. The Office at least had people do their jobs and keep their heads down, cooperate to get things done, ride out the management bullshit.

Amazon management practices will breed sociopathy at the root worker level.

I agree that is kind of the average-stage evolution of an enterprisey company. Amazon is worse.

The Office was utopian compared to real-life Corporate America.

The kind of mean-spirited pettiness that drives actual post-2000 capitalism, and it gets worse the higher you go, is so depressing and repugnant that it can't be put on TV.

Also, characters with no redeeming qualities are considered bad writing. But most coprorate executives are people with no redeeming qualities. You can't put them in fiction; unlike a well-written villain, they'll suck everything into a hole. Even Bill Lumbergh on Office Space had his charms.

And thus the "banality of evil"
