Companies

1. Culture

Businesses make a huge deal about their culture. They want you to read their culture page (spoiler, it looks the same as every other one) and they list “great culture” as a benefit on their careers page.

It’s all a lie. Because culture is NOT what you say it is. Culture is what you do every single day. No amount of platitudes will change that. In fact some of the places I have worked that had the WORST culture were the most vocal about the imaginary one.
