The company's initiative is to provide culture shaping to the whole company was my down fall. They force this on you and you have no choice. These culture shaping exercises are very uncomfortable. Turn to the person next to you and tell them how you appreciate them, I don't know you, how do you appreciate a person you don't know? Most of my peers felt uncomfortable. Does Paychex not see how uncomfortable it makes people? If you did not participate a meeting was scheduled to discuss why you were not "here and now". Definitely not the Paychex Values.
