How office workers get scammed

Make your employees feel superior (with titles, clothes, status) to the general population and give them shitty salaries.
Give them only perceived societal status (just the perceived notion that they have some money and power when they will never have either).
Make them heavily invest in the job's lifestyle (industry: even better) that drains their disposable income to the cents.
Make them work crazy amount of hours and introduce as much bullshit work or tasks as possible, so that they can't think about anything else (and most likely become cough potatoes when they get home).
Make them fat with unhealthy food and sit for long hours, so that the corporate health plan becomes super appealing.
Make the idea of a job, company, industry change unthinkable (super freaking hard, so that they have the constant fear of what would happen if they lost their job).
Give the impression to their loved ones that if he/she lost his/her job the family would have a pretty bad time.
Make it clear that with seniority, everything becomes easier. More money and status will roll in.
Make them desperate and sign unfair contracts, before and while on the job.
Make them feel like depreciating assets. (Threaten that you could hire young ones, who would probably do their job better than they could).
Make it clear that due to security purposes their work email is monitored and can be read at anytime.
Instill fear by making un-human firings (in bulk if possible, to spike up the drama).
Humiliate them by disabling all corporate access and other cards, phone numbers. (Bonus: hire a security guard so that they are escorted out of the office at full sight/display). The ones not fired, will sacrifice more of their life for the company / corporation.

Rule of thumb: the office worker who clips the corporate badge, the one that screams "I have a job", near his/her pants' front pocket is the perfect sucker. He/She is ready to take any BS from the company's policy without using his/her frontal lobes.

Make them sign for a very shitty base-salary and a plausible sounding monopoly money (stock options with weird vesting and rules).
Include some weird "bonus based on performance" that one would never get. Make them super insecure during their evaluation meeting. (Even throughout the job by making them feel stupid).
Be smart by conspiring with your peers to introduce "industry standards" so that you never get singled out as the "evil" one and you know "industry standards" sounds so good for scapegoaty things and abuses.
Ultimately make them replaceable.

No problem, it's just a rat-race.
