The Kiribati Outpost

Overview

A remote team stationed on Kiribati (UTC+13). The Kiribati Outpost ensures The Firm is the first company in the world to clock in at the dawn of each planetary business day.

Thanks to the Kiribati team's diligence, work at The Firm is 25/7. 1

Significance

The Kiribati Outpost represents The Firm's commitment to dominance in all measurable categories, but predominantly that of eagerness to clock in before anyone else.

Criticism

While The Firm's postings in Kiribati have been described by critics as "punitive," "inhumane," and "a bafflingly cruel and presumably highly illegal corporate exile," employees on the ground at the cutting edge of the International Date Line in fact report "increased Vitamin D intake" and "a newfound appreciation for the meat of the Humpback Snapper."
