If Dante were writing the Inferno today, I'm sure he'd include a special
"bolgie" (in the 8th circle) for evil corporate executives.

No, that does happen fairly often. Sometimes it won't be the exact same
posting. Every now and then they will put up job postings from different
divisions that they have no intention of ever actually filling. There is
a company here in Austin that is notorious for posting bogus "openings"
in an attempt to make it look like they're expanding, when in fact they
are still cutting head count and offshoring every job they can.
