Dilbert sits in his cubicle, watching his company's managers plot and scheme around him. These weasel-like bosses care more about protecting themselves than doing real work. They fill his days with meaningless meetings and corporate backstabbing. Dilbert must use his engineering mind to survive this toxic workplace while keeping his sanity. His cynical dog Dogbert offers guidance as Dilbert learns how treacherous corporate life can be. The managers undermine each other and their employees without shame. Dilbert faces a crucial decision. He can play their game and become like them, or he can risk everything to stay true to his principles. The choice will determine not just his career, but who he becomes as a person.
