It feels like no one dislikes the ABC as a company as much as its employees.

Which honestly makes a lot of sense now that I think about it. I hate my employer too.

No one makes deprecating jokes about the ABC as much as its employees, either.

Oh the staff know what their overlords are like. The MD hired the ex HR Head of paragon of employment rights 7-11 who proceeded to stretch "negotiations" out for years by being a prick. All while the MD pretends that it's not him.
