Profile facts
In context
Specific corporate workplaces have been documented as exhibiting cult-like patterns — extreme work hours, severance from non-work family, total identity replacement around the firm. Notable examples include various tech startups, big-law firms, and consulting firm 'up or out' cultures. Mainstream corporate culture is not typically high-control.
This profile is in progress — history, deeper BITE evidence and survivor voices are still being added. Contributions welcome via GitHub.
