corporate

An up and coming superstar at a company that takes part in all company events and buys into corporate propaganda no matter how ridiculous. Often wears a tie to work even though it's business casual. Corporate often becomes their first name. A.K.A -- Golden Boy

Where is your team lead at?

Corporate went to Alabama to run with the big wigs.

Really? Why?

Who knows, that son of a bitch always has his lips locked on someone at the top's ass.

Corporate Rock

the kind of music that is played in the elevators of the places of employment for the 1% ers.

Me in Elevator : Say, what's that sound ? A really bad cover of something by Journey, REO Speedwagon, or Styx maybe ?Friend Next To Me : Could be all of the above. It's elevator muzak, man. Y'know - corporate rock.

corporate cannon fodder

This is similar to its' military definition except applied to the corporate world and its' culture. A low ranking employee without many skills. One who is considered expendable because he/she can easily be replaced.

Hourly workers in this company are just corporate cannon fodder. They just keep us around until we can be replaced by a computer program.

corporate stiff

A career man or woman, a member or the rat race, someone whose life and personality are defined by work. Their temperament is the same at all times, and they are unable to turn their serious nature off and relax, hence the term 'stiff'.

Alex is sacrificing his life working ridiculous hours just to earn his obscene bonus every year, so that he can be wealthy in old age. But by age 40 he had become a corporate stiff, forever changed by years of drudgery that have made him unemotional and boring.

Corporatism

Commonly mistaken in the late 20th and early 21st Century as Capitalist Democracy, Corporatism is a "reversed fascist" political structure where Corporations impose policy onto Government.

Corporatism has divested Governments of the ability to control policy, economy, and ultimately the fate of the nation.

corporate monkey

Monkey's climb trees...Corporate, as in manager wanabe, professionals climb ladders. Both eager to get to the top 'cause that's where the biggest rewards are. you can kiss ass, back stab, dress well, what ever the environment requires to get to the reward. Monkey's are primal...with a tendancy to have eratic behavior. Coporate Monkey's are constantly dissatisfied with there current career level always looking for satisfaction, usually by way of more management power, but money is a close second and is usually a motivating driver.

When your boss knows you are interested in management, and more money, he will offer you projects that are demanding and require more effort, usually hours too, than you usually contribute. He will tease you will how significant it is for the company and lead to REALLY good opportunities is you are successful and possibly a promotion. But the caveat is that you must prove your value to the company by busting your ass, jumping through hoops, kissing ass and HOPING for that little nugget of gratitude from your boss and the company that will someday make you king of the hill. You Sir are a corporate monkey.
