The workplace, with ChristophWalz as a horrible boss, is the heart of PrimeVideo's thrilling series TheConsultant (nowscreamingpv)
NEW YORK -- Think your boss is bad? The one in the new TV series"The Consultant" phones his workers in the middle of the night, nixes all remote work, fires people with long-term illnesses, invites himself to after-work staff drinks and clips his nails at his desk. He might also be a murderer.
Creator, showrunner and executive producer Tony Basgallop started the series by wanting to do a work-based thriller and someone recommended Bentley Little's 2015 novel"The Consultant." by signing up you agree to our terms of service "So I took very much the premise of the book -- very much the feeling of this evil presence, lurking over everyone and no one knowing whether he's the devil or just the boss from hell."

It's up to the CompWare employees to determine what their boss is really up to and uncover his murky past. In many ways, he's a satire of a modern business leader who manipulates others and is quick to expose and manipulate weaknesses. One song that plays is Elvis'"You're the Devil in Disguise."
