When I interviewed for Amazon, they had an online screen that was basically asking which employee should be fired based on the metrics in a table. I'm all for firing bad employees, productivity matters, but it does seem like the culture promotes looking for people to fire.

Like batoru rowaiaru? Or...?

Cause I'm pretty sure that is about the emergent workforce and subjugation of academics into kamikaze roles.

So I assume that's what you mean.
