It seems like what is being produced and what the workers are doing will be explained in a second season if there is one, but imo the nature of work in a massive corporation is really captured by the show in that to many workers their jobs are so focused and somewhat repetitive your work can become something as crazy and boring as organizing numbers until they feel right and that your job is so detached from the products that you may not really know what you make (take it far enough and you could make comparisons to people making drone parts at Lockheed or something, "I just make the chips / code a module")
