Which is why companies DO NOT WANT real critical thinking skills.
They want people who think like they do and who come to the same conclusions that they do based upon the same information that they have.
That doesn't follow. Pepsi wants us to buy more Pepsi, but nothing about their behavior says that they want us to think like they do. For those of you who are older, the "Pepsi Challenge" was hardly scientific but was still a reasonable attempt. And why would H&R Block want us to not use critical thinking skills? Why does the local supermarket care what I believe? Actually, most companies want to hire people who can think, because they are better at making money for the company.
Now, if you had said used "religions" rather than "companies" then you'd have a pretty strong case.
