Hypothetically, lets say I worked for a giant tech company, lets call them... Moogle.I worked as a sales manager of two states for Moogle.I was soft-demoted to one state only (no cut in pay but cut in responsibility.I was on an illegal two-year revolving contract that was unlawful and employed through a sham agency to make it seem I wasn't technically directly employed by Moogle.Moogle senior managers would instruct us to lie to stores about promotions, such as calling them 'sales excursions' instead of a sale promotion (what actually was), as running an incentive-based program costing hundreds of thousands with anti-competition laws in my country.Contract renewals were tied to performing things like this and what other illegal under the table (Below the Line - they actually had a fucking name for it) deals with individual dealer reseller stores (think an AT&T licencee owner that sells Moogle Mixel phones)This meant Mixel phones had a market share of >70% in some dealer stores (normal is around 10% for Mixel). This was a direct result of these bribes they gave to dealer owners to artificially push Mixel. They would give visa gift cards split into small denominations to avoid auto tax-fraud cash equivalent reporting. I brought all of this to Moogle's attention and after two months they fired me just an hour before travel to a Mixel conference for the most trivial reason (I had an business registration I wasn't even using)I got a pathetic payout. Moogle managed to appoint an entire industry law group without permission needed (normally at work tribunal you need approval, but for a company of Moogle's side they managed to not need it apparently).The conciliator let them speak and speak and I could barely get a word in. Long story short, fuck Moogle, they are a scummy company that feeds off society. They do not create any value. Moogle Maps sucks. I would rather pay $500 for a TomTom that actually fucking worked.Anyone else gone through this?

>>106468437>Anyone else gone through this?yeah, I also work at Moogle on Mixel and it's soul-crushingwhat do you expect to happen if you report this? Moogle just lost three monopoly cases and it will amount to nothing
>>106468437I recommend thermite bomb in data center
It will eventually get caught up in one of the endless lawsuits that Moogle finds itself in. More than likely there is an email from someone in Moogle View authorizing everything in short lower case sentences.
Joogle you mean
>>106468505Similar situation?The thing I dont get it how they command (and usually get) undying loyalty for staff when they treat them as so expendable.I think they habe managed to tap into a specific millennial loser that genuinely sees working at Moogle as their whole identity. It's quite amazing, really. I did admittedly find the Moogle Office tour to be pretty fun, but on the way out I realised that the carnival decorations and mini golf on roof would get stale after a couple of weeks (unless you are Millenial cringe)
>>106468516What I realised is the lawsuits are the whole point. Cheaper and easier to pay lawyers and settle for a few hundred mil when you've made a few dozen bil already. Governments get the few hundred mil which is better than nothing I guess.If you ask me, almost every issue we have in society these days stems from turning people into products. I miss when things had value. Google started this whole 'you will own nothing and be happy' dystopia.
>>106468744>Similar situation?not quite, I toil deep in the bowels of Android.>would get stale after a couple of weeksthey did
>>106468776Ah, so youre really in it. Reading the news about theor monopolistic practices though, it does appear that they do function in this way across their entire brand. Physical hardware was no different than what happens with software and Android. This is their business model. Im starting to see them as more of a hostile government power than a private company.Also im pretty sure they lose money on Mixel just to get the handsets out. The money they were spending on our relatively small market was in way recouped by units sold. It's about getting the software out to people for their own uses later onSpeaking of it getting stale, the click for me was during an awards night they already had selected the most cringe kidult things you can imagine, "hey everyone, the prize this year will be a giant Bowser lego" and the whole team went crazy. At that point I realised that they 'select' for autism. I code-switch to present as such but in reality I am far from it. Somehow they 'knew' that the entire team wanted Lego playsets...
>>106468437Heh, I used to work for a company that catered for Google offices. Me and my coworkers stole so much food, boxes of chips and coconut water etc. We'd get high every day in my manager's car and eat free Google cafe meals on the clock. Good times, desu
>>106469142yeah, it's full of manchildren and autismos.>>106469790good for you lads. you deserve it for putting up with Moogle drones. these days i see Asians bring their entire extended families for lunch and to load up on to-go boxes. some people even empty out the microkitchens on their way out of the office.
>>106469956Dysfunctional hooliganry, to be honest, but I did enjoy it. The real victims are Google employees who have to put up with both their evil upper management and the spiteful mutants nibbling at the company's ankles
