its 'growth at all costs'. profit first and only, quarter over quarter. 'breaking even' is failure in the batshit insane world of big business and the stock market. even if everyone gets paid for a job well done and the client is perfectly happy, someone needs to get extra paid . cut corners. cut services. at some point youre too big for it to matter. what are people going to do? go somewhere else? hahahahwalmarthahaha
Hell, it's not even "breaking even" - making the same amount of money as last year is considered a failure, even if that number is astronomical.
Amazon fucked up on this part of the enshitification strategy because there are still plenty of other options
I've used Target for groceries and they're routinely cheaper for most things.
