Spat Out
When Profits Over People Affects YouBy MJ CarverLength4h 25m
About this audiobook
You did not fail. The system was never designed to protect you.Spat Out is for anyone who has been laid off, downsized, restructured, or eliminated — and for anyone who feels the instability beneath the surface of their current role. This book examines what the corporate system was actually built to do, what happens to your identity when the role disappears, and what to build on the other side so that no company, no quarterly projection, and no stranger in an HR meeting can ever put you in that position again.
