Everyone always forgets that the employee is getting paid thick stacks the whole time. No one owes them shit. When you get to the Cxx level all the mamby pamby employee shit goes out the window. Reality sets in. People get hired to fill a role. That's it. All the culture fluff and whatnot? The timescales of employment no longer fit the old mold we are pretending to fill.

Why should the employee care deeply about the company if the company just treats the employee like an asset in return?
I'm just pointing out the double standard. I'm ok with caring about the company and product but there needs to be some reciprocation there. If I'm just an asset then I also want to not give two shits about the product, just do my tasks and go home (and it should be perfectly fine and not affect my reviews).
