At work we pay Microsoft thousands for developer licensees, have windows pro, and there is still ads in the OS.... Windows exists to service them not us.
If work doesn't care then you shouldn't care. At my workplace, they promoted a dumb woman who is in some sort of weird relationship with the manager. Its been 2 months and the backlog of work keeps growing. I am just enjoying watching the ship sink. I don't own the business so i don't care.
Lots if employees have stock based compensation and therefore do own part of the company. A tiny fraction of a company's market cap can still be a huge component (over 50% is not uncommon in tech) of an employee's compensation.
Bro you talking about the 5-10% who works for multi national companies and get stock options. Majority of people don't get stock options, they just do their 9-5 and go home.
