What The Office, The Devil Wears Prada, Office Space (and more) can tell us about the employee experience, corporate culture, and workplace trends
My mom died when I was 16. This was a pivotal (and traumatic) event in my life and shaped everything that would come after it.
Without much adult guidance, television and movies shaped many life lessons for me. That was especially true when it was time to enter the workplace with zero to little context of workplace culture.
The media shows us glimpses into what’s possible, which can act as cautionary tales or show us what we want to emulate. Whether it was the original “Quiet Quitter” Jim from The Office or “Stapler Guy” from Office Space, iconic shows and movies about the workplace help shape our understanding of the employee experience.
