A guy started at a place I was at, and we realized we worked for some other company five years earlier. Quick lunch later, seems that the place I was at had not changed one iota from when I was there. Even when a middle manager moved or was replaced, action from on high kept the processes in place. You're just a cog in the machine, and if the machine is running, there's very, very little that might enact a change.
