Perhaps not coincidentally where Bell Labs was situated
Last night I watched the first episode of Severance on Apple TV+. My cousin and her husband recommended it; the show was largely filmed in Monmouth County, New Jersey, which happens to be where they live. Not sure what I think so far other than the the show is exceptionally creepy. The premise is that a corporation performs a type of surgery on its workers to "sever" their work memories and their personal-life memories. While they're at work, they don't remember anything about their personal lives; while they're outside the workplace, they remember nothing about work.
