I’ve got one for you. I used to work at the Cortiva Institute - they were massage therapy (and some with esthetician programs) schools with about 30 campuses across the US. Staff were increasingly overworked, underpaid, and under pressure to pump out grads. This tore up the faculty because we WANTED the best for the students, so on the corporate level they leveraged that against us and went cheap on everything.
In their last year in attempts to “pretty us up” as investors were ready to sell us, someone had the brilliant idea to build a new “exciting” curriculum and print our own manuals, promising educational, color materials. What students got for they $17-19,000 was incomplete bullshit like this.
They ended up selling in 2019 and countless people across the country lost jobs, but I like to think we’re all better off for it considering the shit direction the company was going.
