The way things are done in upper management in corporate America including their policies, procedures, values, beliefs, rules, and the way they treat and value their employees. It is almost an underworld where arrogance, overpay, and lack of concern for the βlowerβ employees is the norm. Often times, people in corporate America will sell their soul to the devil himself in their quest for power and money, and will do anything to climb the corporate ladder. Corporate America only cares about its own interests and has no concern for the βlesserβ employees. It will make you think your job is secure and then lay you off without warning if it saves the company 10 cents. It will give you a pay cut, but then raise its own salary. Basically, itβs a world of liars, thieves, and hypocrites.
Corporate culture is not so good to the rest of us who work paycheck to paycheck.

An early 2010 decision by the U.S. Supreme eliminated limits on campaign donations from corporations. This decision lead to corporations declaring holy war on incumbent Democrats. Big corporations spent HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS on Republican campaigns, mostly through secret "non-profit" organizations and 527 groups. With the help of these unlimited corporate donations, the G.O.P. outspent Democrats 10 to 1. Unfortunately for America, the 2010 Election will go down in history as the nasiest and most expensive mid-term election ever (so far.)
The Corporate Jihad in 2010 lead to the Republicans gaining a controlling majority interest in Congress and an increased minority share of the Senate. The only real winner in this election was the media and advertising firms.

A moral-less and wanton woman, a slut who has no probem getting on her knees and sucking off male management to get higher in a company or to achieve job security, often sociopathically disregarding her current boyfriend/fiance/husband in the process, as she only cares first and foremost about both being used, and using others who can position her better in the corporate world. The corporate slut, while found in many different industries, can most often be found in the Fashion and Entertainment World. Never truly respected and in fact hated and loathed by their co-workers, often these corporate sluts are not blessed with natural intelligence, just with a nearly psychotic selfishness that allows them to sacrifice both themselves and others who trust them, in order to solidify their sociopathic desire to rise higher in the corporate food chain.
Co-Worker A: That Russian Whore that the Boss just hired is really too dumb for the job! How did she get hired?
Co-Worker B: Not only that, but apparently the bitch lied blatantly on her resume, has been arrested and convicted of violent crimes, and has previously worked as a Prostitute.
Co-Worker A: So how does she even keep her job?
Co-Worker B: What do YOU think? She's the Corporate Slut.
