Japanese has a specific term, 社畜 ('shachiku'), which combines 社 from 会社 and the word for 'livestock'. It describes an employee who is blindly devoted to their company to the point of personal sacrifice.
In Japan, many large corporations are referred to as 大手 (ote), which literally translates to 'big hand' or 'major player'.
When talking about one's own company in a humble way during business, Japanese speakers often use the term 弊社 (heisha) instead of 会社.
