Risk / Reward balance.

The place I work at is cut-throat. The company says that we are NOT a family, we are a team (Like professional baseball). Some people are better at other teams (Aka not fit for this company and get traded).

However they pay very well (Cash and benefits) and I can handle it. The people that cannot should work at places more like USPS or smaller shops.

This is worse than the typical family speal. I hope you realize it's just another tactic of the same manipulation. Trying to provide a sense of superiority to it's employees to justify working conditions. If you can't handle it, "go work at USPS" is especially telling.
