The world would probably wind up a much better place if 95% of MBAs, corporate executives, fintech bros, and marketing "experts" (read: people without functioning moral compasses) were permanently assigned new jobs shoveling raw sewage on the night shift.
At very least the comedy would be absolute gold lol
@IrelandTorin
I wouldn't bucket all of these people into a copass-less category. I've worked with plenty of laborers with no moral compass. And I've known many MBAs that directed their skills at helping humanity via low paying jobs.
@jurban Well, the remaining 5% is meant to account for the few good apples :P
I'd argue the nature of those professions leads to far more harmful expressions of the usual lack of moral compass.
A labourer with no moral compass might pilfer a few things from coworkers or go overboard when trash-talking.
An MBA or exec with no moral compass, OTOH, is liable to have a MUCH larger impact: screw over a ton of consumers, cover up toxicity of manufacturing waste, push global warming disinfo...
@jurban Then there's the marketing folks, whose jobs usually consist primarily of finding new and "innovative" ways to mislead and trick consumers into buying things they don't actually want or need, which are liable to wind up in the trash once it becomes apparent they've bought overhyped hot garbage wrapped in three layers of marketing lies, while threading the needle (or not, and just relying on regulatory capture/corruption) to avoid deceptive marketing or unfair consumer practices charges.
@IrelandTorin
I think your issue is with the fundamental nature of the corporation.
People get jobs at companies. They are expected to deliver or they are fired.
Execs are trained in this environment.
And, struggling companies have even fewer morals guiding executives as they make brutal decisions to keep the corp alive.
Fix the corp and the good people will have breathing room to do the right thing. The rest quit.
