How did that get through the accounting department? Any org I’ve worked for spells out exactly how much they’ll cover/reimburse for travel expenses, and it’s not nearly that high.
It’s just your standard, mundane corruption. Par for the course. That same cunt buys himself personal shit on the company dime, I’ve been told I am no longer to approve those purchases (fucking finally). He has to give us personal checks for that shit nowadays. There’s another cunt who does literally nothing and gets paid $320K/year, been that way for 10 years or so. Another guy “retired” back in 2014 and still gets paid > $120K/year. He’s on the books for 0.2 FTE and basically shows up once in a great while for a meeting or whatever the fuck. It’s all about status and elitism. And the fat fucks at the top not wanting to change the status quo. Why would they? They’re not the ones working for a living. And this is the reason that I do as little work as possible.
Had something similar at a public company I used to work for. When any C-level exec “retired”, an announcement would go out explaining they would “continue to graciously serve as a consultant for the company” - which always ended up being: We keep paying them exorbitant amounts to not work.
Meanwhile, I can’t get a $1k / year raise for a person on my team because “business is tight”.

Same as it ever was.
