It seems like everyone today hates their job - and recent film and TV are taking this anti-work vibe to the extreme. From Squid Game to Succession to Severance, narratives today are aware that most of us are trapped in a rigged economic game which benefits a select elite. And real-life inspired work stories WeCrashed, The Dropout and Super Pumped use documented facts to show us just how bad this has all gotten. Here’s our take on how the workplace sitcom has given way to widespread workplace dystopia and how it reflects our angst that the nature of work today is not just soul-crushingly meaningless but actively wrong.
