News just doesn’t mean what it used to

Gnubyte OP ,

Sorry, I couldn’t find a better sub. It’s like misc news I guess? So I just posted it up hoping to get some decent chatter going in the comments.

Lemmy users hate these 5 weird tricks for boosting engagement

Gnubyte OP ,

lmao I guess so huh? I don’t know man. I appreciate just having a few simple subs and posting to them though. I think thats what I was really getting at. I got the news article from google news and thought Id share it.

Companies that are or feel they are doing big things in the world give you a spiel about being part of something big and you should be proud and being part of such an amazing company is worth it even if there may be less compensation than might be possible at another company or other industry.

SheeEttin ,

I can’t parse this into anything meaningful.

Companies that feel they are “important” treat their employees like shit

kool_newt ,

Yep, and tell you you should be proud of it.

kool_newt ,

Ha ya I had a bit of trouble getting that out.

Tl;dr:

"I don’t want to hear feedback. Just do your job.”

“We value you. But a promotion isn’t in the cards right now.”“

"This is on a need-to-know basis. Information will be shared when the time is right.”

“We can talk about compensation at the next review.”

"We need to fill this role. Let’s not share those details with candidates.”

"I called you last night at 9:00 p.m. Why didn’t you answer?”

"We don’t have time for fun.”

Honestly, it’s missing the following gems…

“We are looking for an industry leading ninja…”

“We’re a work hard, play hard team/company”

“We treat our employees like family.”

Urbanfox ,

I joined a " we are family" company and got shouted at by the founder because I wasn’t a mind reader and didn’t do something I had no idea needed done.

Sounds exactly like family, except I was hired into the position of toddler.

Fuck that noise.

I’m reminded of this guy I fired after he ghosted me when he no-call-no-showed.

“Wait? You don’t treat everyone like family?”
“No. I treat everyone like employees.” The look on his face was kinda priceless.

(For the record, I do try to take care of my employees, and the minimum there is paying what they’re worth- but the relationship is definitely employer-employee. The relationship is inherently transactional; pretending otherwise is exploitation)

I would also add any sort of variation of “at this job, we’re like a family!”

A Manson family

“Fast paced work environment”

“We are family here”

billwashere ,

“Industry leading ninja” is so cringey. It’s like a very out of touch old guy trying sound relevant. I AM an old guy so I have some knowledge here. 😀

funkless_eck ,

Ninja, literally, “invisible”, or perhaps generously, “spy” is such an insane term for a business to use anyway.

It connotates someone who is willing to break the law - kill if necessary- to bring down the opposition. Not someone connecting a new API node for Slack notifications

They probably actually mean Stakhanovite, but wouldn’t bring themselves to use a communist term (/s).
