Dear HN, This post goes out of its way to avoid naming the site in question. If you know the answer to the above question, think carefully before providing that name here or anywhere. Ask yourself how invoking their name specifically contributes value to this story. Ask yourself why you consider it right to shame them by name, when OP did not consider it right to do so.

Please explain to me how a corporation can be "doxxed", because I don't understand how that's possible.
The framing of your reply hinges on an unstated assertion:
“It is always ‘right’ to name and shame a corporation.”
I contradict that assertion in my plea, which results instead in this assumption:
“Consider the ethics of the situation before naming and shaming a corporation.”

You really need to find a new job. I don't know anyone who works for a company like you describe. Just ask questions like "How long have you worked here?" and "How do you handle tasks that run over their time estimates?" during interviews.
