Absolutely sickening. Yeah, we can't afford you people actually doing the money making and Jeremy's new yacht. It was a tough decision, i swear

People always say this, but the execs and board members making obscene money for doing as little a possible is the whole point of the endeavor.

Not defending corporations but these massive conglomerates usually get so intricate, so messy, that there are people who end up getting a paycheck that genuinely do not get assignments. In other words, getting paid to watch paint dry. So sometimes the comments that look terrible are directed at people who were doing nothing or very nearly nothing and still getting paid for it.

But yes also fuck executives getting x80 the pay of developers.

I mean, for the first bunch of years PC users won't have any choice but to emulate

Honest would be "We're firing people to make our short term profits look better. That's what my bonuses are based on, after all!".

you've never been even remotely close to the cult of management have you?

They only made $1.45 billion last year, just up 56% year-over-year.

They were expecting to make over two billion. Which from the perspective of an American corporation, means they lost half a billion dollars. So the end of year bonuses for the c suites are only half as much as they were anticipating, which from the perspective of American executives is like they lost hundreds of thousands of dollars this year.

So you see, it makes perfect sense why hundreds to thousands of employees must be laid off. The business is in a dire position!

Oh. They can afford to keep them.

might be better off trying to make the next indie darling.
