Employee sparks upset with photo of 'perfectly good' electronics being thrown away: 'This place just trashes it all'
"The company I work for would rather throw away perfectly good huge [TVs] than donate or sell them," they wrote. "I'm sure someone will tell me there's some sort of policy at play here, but every other company I've worked for would auction off to employees or sell equipment. This place just trashes it all."
