Couldn't happen to a nicer company. :-) I did a two-month project for Reader's Digest once, working in their headquarters, and when it was over it was like being released from prison. I've never encountered a more paranoid, fascist organization in the business world. The halls were literally patrolled by guards armed with automatic weapons. Employees' private lives were monitored, and if they did something that RD considered "inappropriate," they were fired. Horrible place, horrible company.
