I'm beginning to think that the "tiny" company of 17,000 employees I work for is inconsequential. Although seeing as how the place I worked before this peaked at 296 employees before going out of business, it still seems huge. Even 12 years later.

Well that's why I'm asking, because that's all I know of it.

No it's just an example of how some people may have an opinion of a prestigious well known technology company being a hell hole.
