This was posted under the punch clock at work. I assume it's some kind of occult symbol but that's just a guess. Anyone know what it is or what it means?

You beat me to it, just from a TV show.
But I bet Nancy in HR thinks it's satanic and is reacting as such.
Honestly, this tracks with where I work. I thought it was something cooler.
Sad reality is that this is probably the coolest likely outcome. Coin toss between regular graffiti and some nazi shit the rest of the time.
Do you know who put the signs up?
It's a little too on the nose for the show the symbol is from.
Like, I'd believe a fan of the show made the sign, than a fan was randomly drawing the symbol and then someone made a not reacting the same way the characters in the show do.
I have no idea. I work in a large department and I don't know who 3/4 of my coworkers are. I've never even seen the symbols in person, this was the first time I was made aware of them.
Yeah, the sign is likely the joke then
Never watched the show but it looks to be pretty obviously based on alchemical symbols, style-wise.
Either that, or by some strange twist of fate is a fan of that show. Either theory sounds easily plausible to me, though.
