Yep cyberpunk still perpetuates the idea that corporations are highly competent and innovators, which just doesn’t seem to be true in our current reality. The MBA/financial people have taken over and people that actually want to make cool stuff are no longer in control
I had lunch with a co-worker that spoke with a stupid grin about shaving a couple of cents off of their production units in the manufacturing process. Our products costed hundreds to even thousands of dollars.
I can’t believe there are people alive that are proud of this kind of stuff. He didn’t even have a stock compensated position, or work in manufacturing. He was just a capitalist creep that loved the very concept of being a cheap dumpster fire.
Its to the point they have cut the corners so much that the table is round and now they are eyeing up the legs. “Surely we don’t need all those legs, right?”

But the excel spreadsheet says we saved .35 cents!
