Jack liked to film his "town hall" meetings. At one, an employee asked about "company loyalty". Jack replied "if it is Friday, and you got paid, then we're even".
I disliked many things about him, one of which was the insistence that every department had to be a profit center. Like the service department. Do you ever wonder why repair parts are so expensive? Or why they might not be available at all? You can thank Jack for that.
Or the prevalence of "stack and rank"? That's Jack again.

Granted, I take it from the "employee loyalty" POV, but it works the same going either direction. Ironically, I get paid today, so we are even. Tomorrow, the company and I start over.
