Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A darkly satirical Work Com created by Pat Bishop, Matt Ingebretson, and Jake Weisman, Corporate aired for three seasons (2018–20) on Comedy Central.Ingebretson and Weisman starred respectively as Matt Engelbertson and Jake Levinson, two Junior Executives in Training at an Evil, Inc. Mega-Corp known as Hampton DeVille. Also in the main cast were their Jerkass supervisors, Kate Glass (Anne Dudek) and John Strickland (Adam Lustick); jaded Human Resources rep Grace Ramaswamy (Aparna Nancherla); and iron-fisted CEO Christian DeVille (Lance Reddick).The show was known for its Black Comedy and Comedic Sociopathy, exploring depressingly bleak topics with a detached mundanity as it portrayed the struggle to survive in a soul-deadening office job. | |

Bad Boss | |
| Corporate / int_3cb1d38d | comment |
Bad Boss: Christian DeVille is a Card-Carrying Villain who has no morals and rules the company through fear. John and Kate, who serve as Matt and Jake's direct supervisors, are fickle, cruel and completely self-centered. | |

The Big Board | |
| Corporate / int_87504252 | comment |
The Big Board: The conference room's whiteboard is used in "The Long Meeting" to list "ideas that could help the company," despite no one having further instructions. The ensuing "brainstorm hole" leads to things like "racism" and "this is a nightmare" being listed on the board. | |

Bald of Authority | |

Bald of Authority: Lance Reddick is on familiar territory as Christian DeVille, a bald, black, stern authority figure. | |

Berserk Button | |
| Corporate / int_bc74ef27 | comment |
Berserk Button: For Jake this is any unkind remark about his cat Pebbles, no matter how flippant: When Matt suggests Jake would eat Pebbles in an apocalypse, Jake angrily insists that he would starve to death and let Pebbles eat him first. Jake manages to trigger this himself in "The Black Dog". He spends most of the episode paying too much attention to his inner critic and meekly taking all of its cruel and demotivating comments on board. Until it crosses a line with "Even your cat doesn't love you"... | |
