I have.

A very large and rich cult did a board coup and bought out the multinational my husband worked for, and who I was just starting a job for ( i was sacked ).

They replaced all the exec suite and put in unqualified but trusted friends, employees were only allowed to buy from a list of trusted vendors ( that's called racketeering ) . The execs weren't placed for business expertise, they were like mafia execs, only knowing how to scam.

company tanked, they did not care, they weren't there to keep a business running , they were there to spend the goodwill and take all the money they could asap

the british branch tried to openly sack the execs there , saying they were not the right religion, they forgot that in Europe workers had rights

the law suits were magnificent
