      Commenting on the film as someone who was fired from the company

      That year, because the company's stock fell, the company decided to lay off some of the people whose contracts expired during the year. I am one of them. Like in the movie, everyone in the company is in danger. When I was invited into the conference room to talk with HR, I had various feelings in my heart. When I got home, I didn't know how to tell my wife or my classmates. The direction of your life plan suddenly changes, and you can't follow it. anger, shame. I swear, I must be a big boss...

      This is real America

      The real America is like this. The top management is responsible for the shareholders, that is, for the rich, not for the employees. No matter how old you are or how stressful your life is, as long as the company's profits decline, in order to survive in the market, We must protect ourselves by the sacrifice of our employees. The financial crisis has already shown it very clearly. At that time, some people in the United States really committed suicide, and some even killed their entire families...

    Movie plot

    The time span of "Company The Company Men" is 40 years, and the scene span is also very large. From the rainy streets of Berlin to the sunny Cuban beaches, from the secret subversive activities of Budapest , to the high-level meeting between Moscow and Washington, the two superpowers of the year are battling each other on the global chessboard. Both sides tried to break the tie and took the lead. But in the end, both sides paid a high...

    Movie quotes

    • Bobby Walker: When did it all go to shit?

      Maggie: It hasn't turned to shit. You have Drew and Carson, your parents, and me. OK, you have me.

    • Gene McClary: We used to make something here. Back before we got lost in the paperwork. At one time, we had a frigate, right here, back there. Guided missile cruiser. Phil started out here, in hull assembly.

      [laughs]

      Gene McClary: He was a skinny little bastard. Fearless. He'd hang upside down all day long in a bosun's chair, 70 feet off the shop floor welding an inside seam. I mean, Jesus. Two thousand men a shift, three shifts a day. Six thousand men earned an honest wage in that room. Feb their kids, bought homes. Made enough to send their kids to college. Buy a second car. Building something they could see. Not just figures on a balance sheet, but a ship. They could see, smell, touch. Those men knew their worth, knew who they were. One day, you're making fifty dollars, the next day, 5,000. And then, one day, five million. Start out with a crazy plan. Take insane risks. Barely make enough money to feed your family. Not a chance in hell you're going to succeed. And then, all of a sudden, you've got all these things. You get terrified of losing them. Stock options, corporate jets, vacation homes in the Bahamas. You know. Truth is, I like 500-dollar lunches and 5,000-dollar hotel suites. Now, everything I spent 30 years trying to build for myself and everybody else is... gone.

    • Bobby Walker: I'm sorry, Maggie.

      Maggie: For what?

      Bobby Walker: For everything. For letting you down.

      Maggie: You haven't let me down.

      Bobby Walker: Yeah, I did.

      Maggie: You were never here before. And now you are.
