“Corporate bullshit is a specific style of communication that uses confusing, abstract buzzwords in a functionally misleading way,” said Littrell, a postdoctoral researcher in the College of Arts and Sciences. “Unlike technical jargon, which can sometimes make office communication a little easier, corporate bullshit confuses rather than clarifies. It may sound impressive, but it is semantically empty.”

I mean, it's confirming what folks pretty much already knew and won't make a dent in the cringe corporate culture... I guess it's at least somewhat nice to see it more formally affirmed, but on the other hand it could be even more depressing that you were right all along and it doesn't even matter...
