This is a free illustration of a “toxic workplace”—a satirical representation of a company known for extreme overtime, low or unpaid wages, unreasonable expectations, and exploitative management practices.
In Japan, the term black kigyō (“black company”) is used to describe such workplaces, where compliance with labor laws is often neglected and employee well-being takes a backseat to profit. Common signs include:
- Long working hours with no overtime pay
- Low salaries, sometimes even below minimum wage
- Pressure not to take vacation
- Vague employment contracts
- High turnover due to burnout
- Job ads filled with phrases like “passion required” or “we want people with guts”
This image is great for satirical content, videos addressing labor issues, or storytelling that depicts harsh work environments with a touch of irony or critique.
