At least this time Saruman(c-suite for sure) didn’t catch a golden parachute from the board on his way out the door to guide(Sabatoge) another kingdom(company)

Saruman the White-collar

I didn't really catch this until now, but the LotR "hell" is just your spirit not being let into Valinor like the original conceptualization in Christianity. Neat.

This is like when you acquire a company, transfer the best workers, then ask the former CEO (now VP of something) to meet insane targets and later fire them for cause after they fuck everything up, negating their whole parachute package.
