Definition of corporate whore

corporate whore

noun

  • One who has sold more than their labor to a corporation or corporations, who has forsaken personal values and done something for corporate money that is unethical, illegal, or immoral.
    He took that company's money and hid the results of the test that would show the dangers of that product! He is a corporate whore!
    How can we show it causes cancer when those corporate whores have buried the results of the tests?
    Further explanation of phrase:

    "Corporate whore" as an insult is a claim that the person in question is selling their morality to the highest bidder. Despite the root word 'whore' being colloquially understood as insulting to women, the term 'corporate whore' does not have inherently gendered implications and does not reinforce sexism.

    Compare with attention whore, fame whore.
