It should be banned.
I used to work for a company affiliated with SAAB and some sorry sod had taken Yellow Submarine and made a version on it called Yellow SAAB Marine. Never mind that our company was dealing with marine electronics, and never mind that he tried to make a bit of fun, it’s the last thing you’ll get me to do, is to have me sing some kind of Our Company Kampf crap with the rest of the staff, even if we are all drunk at the yearly Christmas party.
Later on, I’ve had the misfortune to work for two huge American corporations, and I’ll rather rot in hell than work for another. The number of things which were so wrong, I hope China takes over all of them.
What is it with American companies and their Mein Company Kampf songs? The one I mentioned above was at least an attempt at humour, but the American I’ve heard, they’re bloody dead serious about it.
And not to mention some of the videos with the songs I’ve seen spread within an organisation of several 100,000 worldwide. One of the videos was such a puke fest, with the lame company song and a James Bond like story, like we would agent our electronics into people’s minds as cool as only a lame American company can.
I never worked for the below, but it’s one example I could find.
Try to listen to this, and not puke.

Here are the lyrics in case you would want to sing along.
VIVA ACCENTURE!
We want to show the world
Just listen to the spreading word
To educate and inspire
Raise our game higher and higher
You won’t need to roll the dice
The answer’s there before your eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
Accenture are here, to come do their thing
Now we hold the key
To what every company wants to be
Now you’ll really understand
That in our hands you will expand
Chorus
I hear industry phones are ringing
The human capital choirs are singing
We’ll be their strength, their sword and shield
Sustain and grow in every field
It’s not something I need explain
On everyone’s lips will be our name
Never a more honest word
Accenture will show the world
So let’s focus on how we’ll grow
Horizon 2012 is our goal
And when all is said and done
People will not believe what we’ve become
Emerging markets lie in wait
For us to come and educate
To lead with proud esteem
Accenture are here to come do their thing
