Corporate bulimia is when companies grow uncontrollably then inevitably layoff people when they miss their growth forecasts. They "binge" via aggressive hiring, acquisitions and mergers, only to then "purge" via planned and unplanned mass layoffs. Results in a perpetually demoralized, depressed and anxious staff of survivors who then repeat the process until eventually the company goes bankrupt or is sold for parts. Rarely a company actually survives this cycle, thereafter attempting to appear healthy to outsiders while employees continue to suffer in silence. The term is an analogy comparing the neurotic growth of companies to the devastating illness bulimia nervosa, an eating disorder. All-too-often found in vainglorious Silicon Valley growth-focused companies.
"Another ten thousand wage slave layoffs were announced today in the latest rounds of corporate bulimia."

When a government , non-profit or corporate body uses monopolization as a strategy of an individual no matter how nasty the person's background is.
Surprisingly so many times these real smart pedophiles make PROPENSIFYING CORPORATIONS which comes from the fact their entire body and mind is perfectly controlled as they have no personality thst they think they do is they are just a TOTAL VOID.

A corporation humanizing itself, usually through social media such as Twitter, to make you think that the corporation is your friend, or at least a person, as opposed to a business built for profit.
all of these brand twitter accounts that have been posting random shit are just examples of how normalized corporate humanization has become in today's world.

A colloquial term used in corporate settings to describe an individual who takes excessive pleasure in establishing and enforcing overly strict rules for the office. For instance, requiring prior approval to participate in company-sanctioned recreation (e.g., ping pong). Related to: corporate cunt.

Corporate Tortograph Theory states that in the world of late-stage capitalism, the human impulse for creativity has been channeled so exclusively towards marketing that almost any absurd collection of words, names, or syllables is likely to coenside with a real-world entity, person, or organization of some sort, often in the corporate sphere.
“Jesse, I typed “Gortco” into Google and came up with a page for a random Norwegian company… just another proof for Corporate Tortograph Theory.”

A sunset as viewed out of the windows of an office building before an inevitable late night, but seen through the reflection of the windows of the identical office building across the parking lot from your own.
"Somehow, seeing the corporate sunset tonight isn't making the four extra hours of work ahead of me worth it."
