Buzzwords that make boardrooms spin and PowerPoints sing.
Short for 'Young Urban Professional' or 'Young Upwardly-mobile Professional'—the 1980s archetype of ambitious twenty-somethings climbing corporate ladders in expensive suits. These were the latte-sipping, BMW-driving, cellular-phone-toting symbols of Reagan-era materialism. Today's tech bros are basically yuppies with hoodies instead of power ties.
Young, ambitious social climber driven purely by greed, status, and bling—the type to backstab coworkers and suck up without shame for a promotion. A corporate parasite in training.
