Chinese workplace culture may be easing a little.
China has become infamous for supporting a work culture that demands long hours and blind obedience. Employees are expected to work themselves to death and be grateful for the opportunity. But this exec may have gone too far. Her statements remind me a little of Southern slavery apologists who claim US slavery gave Black slaves skills and opportunities. Anyway, she lost her job for saying out loud what her employer hired her to cover up. So, does this mean they're feeling remorse, or merely wanting to replace her with someone who can provide better cover?
