Once the MBAs take over a company, it becomes about control and cruelty even over and above profit. The conventional story is that MBAs do what they do for profit. But that’s not really true at all. In large companies especially, profit is anywhere from third to tenth priority on the list. The top of the list is about status, power and control.
And yes, I have worked for large companies so I know and have experienced this directly.
