Corporate Cowboyz

Like Cocaine Cowboyz, but not situated in the narcotics game.

Corporate all day, baby. Money is the drug, and if you're sitting on it, then you ain't moving; and if you ain't moving, you're getting mopped up. No more stoops. No more corners. Just marble floors and three piece suits. Corporate Trappers at their finest. Corporate Cowboyz are really just corner office hitters. Boardroom Sharks. Payroll Mercs. Such is life. Apex Regulators. Their peak. The epitome of graduating. Leveling up. Don't even have a name, just a reputation. Manager? Fuck a manager. Corporate Cowboyz make lateral moves. "Make a few mil here, a few mil there" - Antonio Montana To them business is not a board game. Business is war. And you don't "win" war, by hoarding trillions. You spread it around along with your legend, if not your legacy will be shit.

Make a thousand, handle a million. Damn it feels good to be a Corporate Cowboy...

Example 1
Person 1: You heard redacted, the department head, got fired over the weekend? Sheesh management is cold for that one.
Person 2: Then you must've not heard he got got by some Corporate Cowboyz. Pay house calls like fucking doctahs, these fucking killas.
Person 1: Fucking ay, that's one way to go. Whole fucking bloodline gone and you be the one to blame for it.
Person 2: I'm telling you, mang. That bitch had it coming. Management is saying the position is open now, starting salary is redacted.
Person 1: Haha for redacted, they better bulletproof the company whip. I'm not getting smoked on the way to drop off my kids at practice, because the higher ups need a fall guy.
Person 2: HAH Corporate Cowboyz don't give a fuck. They'll drop your kids, too.

Corporate Cowboy 

In this context, the term “cowboy” has been given a negative connotation. In this sense, "cowboy" refers to those people who shoot around with empty word shells (hollow words or also buzzwords), especially in meetings with word salvos, in order to generate an impression among team members and supervisors to look as competent and intelligent as possible by using a lot of “intelligent or technical” words. This is also referred to as “bullshit-bingo” and causes a lot of hot air and dust but with a “peng-peng-wow-effect”, meaning, firstly, people are highly impressed and intimidated. But over time, team members and supervisors understand that it is just hot air and are in fact annoyed by the cowboy’s apperiance and “wana-be, joke cracking” leadership behaviour.
Their behavior is driven purely by opportunistic and egoistic nature and solely serves to present themselves strategically best in the company or in the team. Supervisors are slimed by the application of cowboyism, whereby people on the same level are run over by renewed word salvos and “peng-peng” gestures, knocked off and/or made mouth-dead.
The basic prerequisite for corporate cowboys is the lack of leadership qualities and incompetence of superiors or the deliberate promotion by other cowboys, who in turn satisfy each other's egoistic spirit in their own cowboy group to the point of neurological orgasm with their fictitious intelligence and pomposity. One calls it also "man round".

This dude is such a bullshit-bingo guy . He is a corporate cowboy......
or
Did you listen to Steve? He was just ..peng peng peng peng peng peng...all the time.
