Chronicling the decline of permanence and security in corporate culture, the author provides a vivid account of the decline of the "Organization Man" in the wake of merger mania and high-level corporate greed

From Library Journal

Former Wall Street Journal reporter Bennett has written an excellent account of the new economic reality for the large corporation in the 1980s. The goal of leaner and more efficient and globally competitive firms resulted in the loss of 3.1 million jobs in Fortune 500 firms from 1980 to 1987. Layers of middle management were eliminated along with the expectation of job security, promotions, and increased pay. The negative and positive effects on the many individuals who lost their jobs are well documented, as is the shift to a new organizational reality which includes individuals independently managing careers across organizations. Highly recommended for all collections.
