How are "real thanks" and "thanks of the week" different?

One feels sincere and not scripted and the other well is company policy?

Company culture and company policy aren't the same thing

Then why does the Company usually have five to seven cultural values they plaster on the wall and form the basis of employee reviews? Feels like Company policy to me.

I've definitely experienced similar, mostly when thanks are rolled up above team level into large all-hands type meetings though. In those cases you'll get senior managers polling everyone to submit some thanks so that their team isn't under-represented in case it looks like they're not pulling their weight.
