oh yeah! I remember A upper management fellow talked himself warm how important it was to fly economy despite that we had an agreement that we could fly business because of the saving and the hardship company was undergoing. Then of course he flew first class, not business, first. he got spotted by a collegue going to the same meeting. Upper management pretended he didn't see him, avoid eye contact. yep that how it works.
@@goosty17 but initially when the company started you were not there. You only joined once the company is established. They pay you for your work and if it is a fair salary based on market value I don't see why you would feel entitled to steal the CEOs salary
@@gokuafrica And yet if we had to value productivity, output and what they actually contribute through their actions, the work they put in no one person is worth more than a few million dollars a year, yet tons of CEOs of big companies make dozens to hundreds of millions. Until the 1980s CEOs, COOs and other executives earned 3-6x times more than the most core essential worker of the company(be it an engineering company, marketing company, manufacturing company, etc, etc), which is fair. Nowadays CEOs earn 25-350x times more than the senior essential core workers of the company. We really need a new economic system, but oh well. On top of that in public companies, the CEOs weren't there when the company was founded either... the CEOs in those companies are put in there by a board of directors and executives.

All these companies expect maximum effort for minimum pay. Give them minimum effort for maximum pay, especially now with costs going through the roof. Effort going to a new low.
As my pops always said minimum wage, minimum effort. I'd expect more for the extra responsibility than the utmost basics considered, a requirement for higher than minimum wage. E. G having to lock up at night, checking all security measures in addition to your daily work, should be paid more than a extra 10p a hour. At least the going rate you would pay a different person for that job. So a extra £200 a week or £40 a night at a minimum. Any boss that doesn't pay for the extra responsibilities, so far I've just moved jobs because that's just taking advantage of poorly informed employees.

@@iorekby before I landed my first job I was really scared because of how much negativity I saw on the internet, everything turned out fine lol. This is a internet problem, we only see the bad sides while the good gets obscured.
I'm split on this. I had an internship, but it was part time, and got my foot in the door. Mine was the exception, and not the rule though. I have read, and heard about interns that were basically treated like slaves. Long hours, hard work, and treated with no respect.
@Joshua Fluke I landed a senior dev role at 30% above the market salary for the country I live in, WITH JUST ONE YEAR OF DEV EXPERIENCE in another company. I have been tinkering with programming for a long while, but didn't have corporate experience. You encouraged me to be less honest 😀 I've been here for a year and promoted to a team lead as well. But the company I joined is very unlike the companies you keep criticizing. You showed all the red flags to me, so I flagged companies that did any of the cringe things you mention and avoided them. The only thing this company does, that you've so far criticized, is being secretive about salaries. Other than that, I cannot complain :D Oh, and your setting is now too bright for my light sensitivity. I turned the brightness down all the way, but it looks kind of bad.
How do you know that the average salary for Senior developers is 30% less than what you get now? And also out of curiosity : did you "extended" your experience in the 1st company (saying it was more months that it actually was, or saying that you started as junior but in 6 months you were promoted, just to sound more impressive ) ? Or you were afraid to be dishonest about it (since it could be easily checked) and just said in the interview that you have worked in personal projects for many years (but then again , I suppose they would like you to show them, so what did you have to show?) . Also I suppose they put you thorugh a programming interview, so you must have done well in that technical interview.
@@georgiosdoumas2446 Statistical data that's publicly available. Also, if you ask around, you will find what the averages are, those things are not exactly secret. The reason I got a higher salary was that they were in a dire need of my skill set (or what they imagined it to be based on the interview), not because they love me, though. So, I used the personal project + freelance gambit basically. The interview was fairly simple, but I have thoroughly prepared for it, and I seem to be able to manipulate people into believing I know things that I just know I can easily check and learn. So, this did have a high learning curve and I did have to learn a lot off work, but in the end, I actually achieved the level I had initially proposed. Since I was learning things fresh and actively improving, and I know how to deal with people, I was granted a team lead promotion. Every waking day I think about how it is incredible nobody has caught up to me, but the reality is, the work I do actually is high quality, and we do manage to output things on time. Since this is an outsourcing company, we have clients, and those are extremely happy with my team, and me in particular. I guess this would be a grand example of fake it till you make it, but it is probably mandatory to have tech-based interests and be a tinkerer in general, have good people skills or at least be likeable, and really push yourself into learning. I didn't think I was a particularly likeable person because people mostly hated me, and even bullied me in high school, but I was always doing my own things and learning about programming and making anything that comes up in my interests. I just didn't work with clients or get out much, but people seem to genuinely like me now, it is really weird, and I feel really weird and bad about how I am lying to all these kind people, but my results aren't. There are people who have been working for 5+ years at this company who now have worse skills than I do, just because they didn't push themselves (and the project they work/ed on was really stale). It is super, super weird.
So my timeline goes like this: Started programming at 15 but didn't really do anything major, didn't work for company, didn't mess with any CMS or framework, nor front end, nly did mods for games, but I did a lot of coding, yet my learning was super slow because I was in a niche, and for the longest time I didn't even have the most basic grasp of data types or how anything works. Enrolled uni at 19 and never finished, but got some professional toolset information from it. Got my junior position at 23 and invested into learning all this web stuff Got my senior position at 24 and continued learning web stuff and started being proactive with clients Got my team lead position at 25 and now investing into learning management as well as architecture, presales etc
Also I am super paranoid someone from the company could read this and while I know that's statistically unlikely, it scares the ever living shit out of me. I had to get this off my chest somehow and have been meaning to for the longest time, but this is a bizarre feeling. I always feel the client isn't demanding enough, and my reviews are amazing because of that, so if we move to an actually demanding client, my shortcomings will become apparent.
first off, Thank you joshua for exposing these companies. as much as people talk shit about you because of these videos, you are actually making a difference.
I'm noticing a theme. All these companies that are against remote work essentially say, "Go team! You did great working from home during a pandemic! We did it!" And are now doing an about-face and saying that working from home doesn't work.
I love this shit, please do more comparisons and break downs of what CEOs are purchasing/blowing money on versus what they're giving their employees. So cool to see screencaps of their private jet then track that all the way down to how many times they fly and where they go.
As long as you're getting recognition, good or bad, means people are starting to pay attention to you. You deserve a lot more than subscribers but your happiness is most important. I love your videos no matter what they're about, your blunt attitude always makes my days better! Stay safe Josh!
🤣LOL Omgggg this was genius. Great detective work looking up that CEO's flights. It takes so much time and effort to learn coding languages. Don't spend time building someone else's business. Pay your bills, but make moves to get free.
You'd definitely want to leave. Because when it's time to cut costs, the CEO probably increases his own salary while laying off people. Heck he'll probably take even more time off.
Joshua - EXCELLENT VIDEO as always. It's great to find someone calling out, in a very funny and brutally honest way, of all the corporate bullshit going on now (as much as ever). Keep up the great work!
Comparing what that CEO spends on flying to the average wage he pays is one of the best things you’ve done with your ability to reach a lot of people. Also not a socialist, but the pay of the top people vs everyone else is incredible and apparently much greater in the US compared to a lot of other places.
Socialism, in simple terms, is ownership of the means of production. Bailouts and Welfare are not Socialist. Welfare is a Social Liberal idea adopted by countries which had a sufficiently developed economy to do so. Bailouts are a practice stemming from the oligopolistic and nepotistic nature of modern Neoliberal economies.
Again I’m entertained at your expense. I think you are doing a great job bringing to light the problems with the new types of jobs and the pitfalls of some. I hope your reach stretches and more young people pay attention and those who are behaving badly change their ways. God bless you Joshua.
Just came across this today. Been using these videos to get me into the right mindset for interviews. I'm not going to lie, I'm actually admiring guy for doxing this CEO back.
These videos open up peoples' minds or confirm what some of the rest of us are thinking. Corporate tries to pretend is not related to serfdom--but, that's just the hypocrisy of it. I've got to get my husband to binge watch you too. TY for the great content, seriously.
I love you man. I love you. I STAND BY Every video you make. It's honest and not aggravated as some people might think. You give insight on both side of the coins. And it is because of this i think ur content stands out. i am a high schooler rn and me and my friends watch ur videos and it really help us calm down as there are so many "false" redundant information out there which could be really overwhelming and discouraging. YOU GIVE US HOPE JOSH!
Being a future entrepreneur, watching your videos is gibing me insight into finding the best intersection of making crap ton of money and not being a dickhead to the human beings I employ.
Lmao you are the most German dud who’s not a German 💚 (It’s a complement couse normally only Germans aka Allmans are so curious in such random researchs and Numbers)
No comprendo del todo en tus videos, sin embargo, no me pierdo ninguno de ellos. Hace tiempo te encontré por "error" y viejo, eres alguien a quien admirar y seguir. Lofiu vro
You are doing good work. These things need to be discussed. If people don't want to honestly discuss this they are hiding something. Dishonesty needs to be called out.
How sad is it that you're this "ranting on the internet" TH-camr and (potentially (I haven't watched the whole thing yet)) getting more feedback from the CEO than one of his own employees? Internally, they're probably wishing you worked for them so that they could just as easily fire you, heh. In any event, loving these videos, keep them up!
That's exactly why we need people like Josh and platforms like Glassdoor, so bad companies can be held accountable. The biggest problem with bad tech companies is they simply don't listen most of the time. It's a major factor in why they end up bad.
I really enjoy your videos. We had a similar cringe culture under my last manager. As an introvert it was my worst nightmare. Thankfully we have a new manager now who treats us like adults not 5 year olds.

I'm split on this. I had an internship, but it was part time, and got my foot in the door. Mine was the exception, and not the rule though. I have read, and heard about interns that were basically treated like slaves. Long hours, hard work, and treated with no respect.
In California unpaid internships are illegal
@Joshua Fluke I landed a senior dev role at 30% above the market salary for the country I live in, WITH JUST ONE YEAR OF DEV EXPERIENCE in another company. I have been tinkering with programming for a long while, but didn't have corporate experience. You encouraged me to be less honest 😀 I've been here for a year and promoted to a team lead as well.
But the company I joined is very unlike the companies you keep criticizing. You showed all the red flags to me, so I flagged companies that did any of the cringe things you mention and avoided them.
The only thing this company does, that you've so far criticized, is being secretive about salaries. Other than that, I cannot complain :D
Oh, and your setting is now too bright for my light sensitivity. I turned the brightness down all the way, but it looks kind of bad.
How do you know that the average salary for Senior developers is 30% less than what you get now? And also out of curiosity : did you "extended" your experience in the 1st company (saying it was more months that it actually was, or saying that you started as junior but in 6 months you were promoted, just to sound more impressive ) ? Or you were afraid to be dishonest about it (since it could be easily checked) and just said in the interview that you have worked in personal projects for many years (but then again , I suppose they would like you to show them, so what did you have to show?) . Also I suppose they put you thorugh a programming interview, so you must have done well in that technical interview.
@@georgiosdoumas2446 Statistical data that's publicly available. Also, if you ask around, you will find what the averages are, those things are not exactly secret. The reason I got a higher salary was that they were in a dire need of my skill set (or what they imagined it to be based on the interview), not because they love me, though.
So, I used the personal project + freelance gambit basically. The interview was fairly simple, but I have thoroughly prepared for it, and I seem to be able to manipulate people into believing I know things that I just know I can easily check and learn. So, this did have a high learning curve and I did have to learn a lot off work, but in the end, I actually achieved the level I had initially proposed. Since I was learning things fresh and actively improving, and I know how to deal with people, I was granted a team lead promotion.
Every waking day I think about how it is incredible nobody has caught up to me, but the reality is, the work I do actually is high quality, and we do manage to output things on time. Since this is an outsourcing company, we have clients, and those are extremely happy with my team, and me in particular.
I guess this would be a grand example of fake it till you make it, but it is probably mandatory to have tech-based interests and be a tinkerer in general, have good people skills or at least be likeable, and really push yourself into learning. I didn't think I was a particularly likeable person because people mostly hated me, and even bullied me in high school, but I was always doing my own things and learning about programming and making anything that comes up in my interests. I just didn't work with clients or get out much, but people seem to genuinely like me now, it is really weird, and I feel really weird and bad about how I am lying to all these kind people, but my results aren't.
There are people who have been working for 5+ years at this company who now have worse skills than I do, just because they didn't push themselves (and the project they work/ed on was really stale). It is super, super weird.
So my timeline goes like this:
Started programming at 15 but didn't really do anything major, didn't work for company, didn't mess with any CMS or framework, nor front end, nly did mods for games, but I did a lot of coding, yet my learning was super slow because I was in a niche, and for the longest time I didn't even have the most basic grasp of data types or how anything works.
Enrolled uni at 19 and never finished, but got some professional toolset information from it.
Got my junior position at 23 and invested into learning all this web stuff
Got my senior position at 24 and continued learning web stuff and started being proactive with clients
Got my team lead position at 25 and now investing into learning management as well as architecture, presales etc
Also I am super paranoid someone from the company could read this and while I know that's statistically unlikely, it scares the ever living shit out of me. I had to get this off my chest somehow and have been meaning to for the longest time, but this is a bizarre feeling. I always feel the client isn't demanding enough, and my reviews are amazing because of that, so if we move to an actually demanding client, my shortcomings will become apparent.
There is nothing to be proud of in being a slave. Tell us when you wil be freed from work.
Dude you're a superhero. Society needs heroes like you as much as people with cancer need treatment. Stay strong we love you.
Please never stop doing what you do.
first off, Thank you joshua for exposing these companies. as much as people talk shit about you because of these videos, you are actually making a difference.
I remember someone saying once, "If you're catching flak, you're over the target!"
Hey Josh, I'm leaving this comment right here for the algorithm. Hope you appreciate it
I do
@@JoshuaFluke1 Glad I could help
Banana!
interested
Bro, turn down brightness a bit. You look like saint xd
thats the vibe bro
St. Fluke- patron saint of trapped employees
That happens when you're doing the lords work
Josh is trapped in limbo and has to roast shitty companies as punishment.
I kinda like it. Better than the dim shots from his earlier vids from the new house.
This guy has got balls of STEEL!!! More power!
I'm noticing a theme. All these companies that are against remote work essentially say, "Go team! You did great working from home during a pandemic! We did it!" And are now doing an about-face and saying that working from home doesn't work.
I love this shit, please do more comparisons and break downs of what CEOs are purchasing/blowing money on versus what they're giving their employees. So cool to see screencaps of their private jet then track that all the way down to how many times they fly and where they go.
Josh...you are a SAVAGE...well done and thanks for looking out for us!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Way to shine a light on some of these shady clowns, Joshua! Keep up the good work!
As long as you're getting recognition, good or bad, means people are starting to pay attention to you. You deserve a lot more than subscribers but your happiness is most important. I love your videos no matter what they're about, your blunt attitude always makes my days better! Stay safe Josh!
Total props on the research! I know it takes a lot to dig into these topics. Well done!
I admire what you contribute to the world and how you face the chalenges you encounter in life. Hugs.
Corporate cringe is the work of the divine.
What does this mean lol
🤣LOL Omgggg this was genius. Great detective work looking up that CEO's flights. It takes so much time and effort to learn coding languages. Don't spend time building someone else's business. Pay your bills, but make moves to get free.
This is some detective work, maybe you should create a detective channel 😂
You'd definitely want to leave. Because when it's time to cut costs, the CEO probably increases his own salary while laying off people. Heck he'll probably take even more time off.
You're brave to stand up for the people over money! You're a warrior !
This is the content I always watch. It's good to hear someone who has the freedom to speak out about these things!
I don't even wanna be on that level where I can fly on private jets. I just wanna be on that level where I call out CEOs too 😂
Josh's stalking ability is incredible, haha.
This is the most important channel on TH-cam rn, change my mind
Joshua - EXCELLENT VIDEO as always. It's great to find someone calling out, in a very funny and brutally honest way, of all the corporate bullshit going on now (as much as ever). Keep up the great work!
I already smashed that like button! Thanks Josh
Good job following up these shenanigans.
"If you don't like this video, double smash thumbs-down." Genius lol
Just stumbled across your videos and enjoy them.
I may not agree with everything but I appreciate your brutal honesty and wit.
Comparing what that CEO spends on flying to the average wage he pays is one of the best things you’ve done with your ability to reach a lot of people. Also not a socialist, but the pay of the top people vs everyone else is incredible and apparently much greater in the US compared to a lot of other places.
Also these people never seem to have an issue with socialism for the rich.
Socialism, in simple terms, is ownership of the means of production. Bailouts and Welfare are not Socialist. Welfare is a Social Liberal idea adopted by countries which had a sufficiently developed economy to do so. Bailouts are a practice stemming from the oligopolistic and nepotistic nature of modern Neoliberal economies.
Again I’m entertained at your expense. I think you are doing a great job bringing to light the problems with the new types of jobs and the pitfalls of some. I hope your reach stretches and more young people pay attention and those who are behaving badly change their ways. God bless you Joshua.
I never new comments assist the algorithm. Also your videos are very helpful for me! You’re so high vibrational. Many thanks
This portion of breaking down the flight costs was genius
You look really good in this lighting man, I'd recommend continuing this setup instead of the more normal dark setup.
Already smashed like before you asked. These videos are helpful for me.
Comment for the algos, keep up the good work, Josh!
Just came across this today. Been using these videos to get me into the right mindset for interviews. I'm not going to lie, I'm actually admiring guy for doxing this CEO back.
Looking good, Josh! Keep up the good work! The world needs more people who call out garbage people and organizations.
Leaving a comment down below to help that algorithm
These videos open up peoples' minds or confirm what some of the rest of us are thinking. Corporate tries to pretend is not related to serfdom--but, that's just the hypocrisy of it. I've got to get my husband to binge watch you too. TY for the great content, seriously.
nice work josh.
Unbelievable!!! Thanks Josh.
Leaving a comment for the algorithm, keep it up!
@Zachary Pedigo and I’m responding to your comment for algo. LOL. Lots to gain from Josh’s videos. Greetings from Chicago
Algorithm
These videos must keep going!!! You're becoming the fearless leader of the remote warriors
I love you man. I love you. I STAND BY Every video you make. It's honest and not aggravated as some people might think. You give insight on both side of the coins. And it is because of this i think ur content stands out. i am a high schooler rn and me and my friends watch ur videos and it really help us calm down as there are so many "false" redundant information out there which could be really overwhelming and discouraging. YOU GIVE US HOPE JOSH!
keep up the good work my friend!
You’re famous! This is hilarious and, yes, you’re making a difference. Somebody had to say it!
please do more content like this!
Being a future entrepreneur, watching your videos is gibing me insight into finding the best intersection of making crap ton of money and not being a dickhead to the human beings I employ.
I am loving this channel now. I just recently realised the BS going on in the company I work for. These videos are very interesting! Thank you.
Lmao you are the most German dud who’s not a German 💚
(It’s a complement couse normally only Germans aka Allmans are so curious in such random researchs and Numbers)
How many Germans are needed to change a light bulb?
One - they are efficient and have no humor
🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
I replaced a tire on a german car for the first time. The jack alone left me speechless.
No comprendo del todo en tus videos, sin embargo, no me pierdo ninguno de ellos. Hace tiempo te encontré por "error" y viejo, eres alguien a quien admirar y seguir. Lofiu vro
“Creepy black gloves but...”. This channel is turning into a professional roast
you're making a difference man, thank you!
I didn’t get one add while watching this. What happened? 😁 Love your work Josh!
Rip
@Alex Mason I don't control how many play I'm sorry
Same. I see so ads many on the progress bar but none played
♥ your videos

The private jet calculation is hilarious 😆 It cost the CEO two junior developers to fly around since January.
You are doing good work. These things need to be discussed. If people don't want to honestly discuss this they are hiding something. Dishonesty needs to be called out.
How sad is it that you're this "ranting on the internet" TH-camr and (potentially (I haven't watched the whole thing yet)) getting more feedback from the CEO than one of his own employees? Internally, they're probably wishing you worked for them so that they could just as easily fire you, heh. In any event, loving these videos, keep them up!
Its actually really bad and showcases more things that need to be seen
That's exactly why we need people like Josh and platforms like Glassdoor, so bad companies can be held accountable. The biggest problem with bad tech companies is they simply don't listen most of the time. It's a major factor in why they end up bad.
Josh is almost like our real life “Kuato”.
You went heavy on this research bro!! Respect!!😅
I love your videos! Love the way you bust people's balls for being slimy. Corporate Cringe series is good stuff.
Thanks for these videos Joshua! Keep it going!!
I really enjoy your videos. We had a similar cringe culture under my last manager. As an introvert it was my worst nightmare. Thankfully we have a new manager now who treats us like adults not 5 year olds.
Lmfaooo you're rekking this guy xD love it, don't stop!
Glad some people took Josh's advice.
You are my hero. More people have to watch it!!!
Good research Josh. I'd be pissed if I was a junior dev for this slime.
Long life to you Josh. Really. Long life to you brotha. World needs people like you and there’s not many of them out there.
Joshua "Corporate slayer" Fluke
Damn man u sound a lot happier than u did from ur old vids like pre Content we didn't ask for started. I'm happy for you man, ur girlfriends family really is that great huh
Never expose where you live, Joshua. Stay safe!
I have learned SOO much more from you about how this stuffworks ("youtub-ing," social media-commerce, linked-in, etc) than I've been able to glean from traditional sources. Thanks for your "cringey trolling" -jni ( 51 yr-old, self-education & anti-corp slavery pioneer)
I feel bad for the Proplogix employees that were used for that promotional video. I doubt they asked for permission beforehand.
Worse yet they would have been deemed "not a team player" if they didn't
You’re doing great work, many blessings and take care.
Josh coming to us live from the surface of the sun.
Keep up the good work, Joshua! Much love from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Protect Josh at all cost 🙌🏻
Good job Detective Josh. We appreciate the information
