Corporate Hack

A worker drone in a big ass corporation who strives for mediocrity, is threatened by critical thinking and always takes the easy or safe way out instead of what pushes forward. Is inauthentic and willing to jump aboard the latest fad for brownie points from their superiors or to push along a popular agenda even if they haven't really thought it through or actually care. A pencil pusher. A workplace politics rat. Will throw others under the bus to save their own skin or to cover up their own fuckups.
" Tony's up to his fuckery again. Started wearing some new badge about that thing after HR sent that 'we stand for so-and-so' email. Yesterday he was making jokes about it when he handed the report in late and blamed everyone except himself for it. He's such a corporate hack, I wanna punch his face and smack that slimy grin off" grimaced Arsene.

"Ah crap, Tony's coming this way.. and he's... handing badges out? Kill me now" Mark groaned.

"Guy creeps me out, but management seems to like him, so what do I know?" Sherry remarked.
