"Juice the next 3 months."

Thats it. Thats the whole strategy each exec uses until they leave.

How can I get one of these jobs? Important detail I’m not rich.

Seems like a low skill job.

Quick answer this one question.

You are given a button that upon pressing kills 100,000 people. The button does nothing else.

Do you press the button?

Of course not. Why would I risk limiting our market share that way?

I demonstrate synergy and the ability to run an agile ship by instead outsourcing development of an app charging 1,000,000,000 people $15 monthly for the privilege of pressing the button and posting that they weren't it this month.

Then I press it, because we must make sure our actions align with increasing shareholder value.

Sir, please wait by the door for your hummer limo straight to the upper crust.
