After two decades in the belly of the corporate beast, clawing his way to the top of one of the great multinational companies in the cosmos, Stanley Bing has seen it all. The Big Bing provides a mole's-eye view of the society in which we all live and work, in Bing's trademark funny, wise, and pleasantly mean-spirited style.A mandatory addition to the library of everyone who
works for a living (or would like to).
For twenty years, Stanley Bing has offered insight, wisdom, and advice from inside the belly of one of the great corporate beasts. In one essential volume, here is all you need to know to master your career, your life, and, when necessary, other weaker life forms. Bing knows whereof he speaks. He has lived the last two decades working inside a gigantic multinational corporation, kicking and screaming all the way up the ladder. During that time, he has seen it all - mergers, acquisitions, layoffs, the death of the three-martini lunch - and has himself been painfully reengineered a number of times. He has made a million friends and seen many of them prosper and grow, and sadly seen others sink into consultancy. He has eaten and drunk way too much, stayed in hotels far too good for him, waited for limousines in the pouring rain, and enjoyed it all. Sort of. Most important, Bing has seen management at its best and worst, and he has practiced both as he made the transition from an inexperienced player who hated pompous senior management to a polished strategist who kind of sees its point of view now and then. Bing's many fans from his days at Esquire and those who enjoy his current column in Fortune know that his take on the workplace is pure storytelling at its best - sophisticated, amusing, and driven by the kind of insight that only a true insider can possess. The Big Bing provides a corporate mole's-eye view of the society in which we all live and toil, creating one of the most entertaining, thought-provoking, and just plain funny bodies of work in contemporary letters.
