Humble Beginnings
Corporate American culture. That’s what this blog will explore. All the unethical and idiotic behavior from the perspective of those lowest on the totem pole.
You’ll notice that there are two of us posting thoughts and opinions. They may not always match, and you may not always agree, so feel free to join the conversation.
We’re writing about our experiences with the hope that other aspiring young professionals will be better prepared for the world they are about to enter. If you’re already a member of Corporate America, we hope you find our anecdotes to be amusing.
Though 2009 was a tough year, with cutbacks across the board, things are starting to look up for aspiring professionals. 2010 holds the promise of more jobs. A nationwide CareerBuilder.com survey found that 20 percent of employers in the U.S. plan to hire permanent, full-time workers in 2010—up 14 percent from 2009.
So there is hope, but now it’s time to change your fairytale perspective on Corporate America.
