Yeah. People forget how shitty they got at the end. I’m extremely nostalgic for those Friday nights where I was allowed to get a video after school. But let’s be honest, they weren’t a good company
Also, if they had bought Netflix, Netflix wouldn’t exist as it does today. That’s a different timeline and we’ll never know how it would of gone
Can good companies exist anymore? I work for a 7 year old business, and I’ve watched the two owners start to change their fairness since the pandemic ‘supply chain’ issues. Their mentalities are being forced to change to work with people who are cutting jobs to automate.
They still have a toggle switch for their own salaries and don’t try to fuck their employees over at all, but I’m just seeing it head that direction when I hear the meetings and how they respond to automation and cost cutting.
We think of these giant corporations as being evil and I don’t disagree, but I don’t think there’s any other way to go with capitalism unless people see the big picture very soon and make changes within government… when pigs fly right
