Yes, punish the hundreds who simply do their job by forcing the company to go out of business, instead of trying to steer it towards a more productive future. We've gotta justify that pitchfork investment, don't we?
I'm sure I've seen "just doing my job" invoked in a pejorative sense, in close parallel to "just following orders"? When one's job is to harm society, society might step in, even if one "didn't know".
