    We made decisions that have absolutely decimated the value of our brand. Now go make money from the ashes!

    The ceo makes $96.5 million a year. Where’s the “accountability margins” when that was decided? These companies and their decisions really show how stupid the stock market really is. At least that’s the way I see it being uneducated from the outside

      This should be severely punishable by the law. It causes more societal harm than many crimes with serious penalties.

        Cap executive pay at 12x the lowest paid employee in the company. You can’t make more in one month than the drones make in a year. If you want a raise make sure everyone else gets one too.

          I can’t wait to see the exemption for “part time workers” and suddenly everyone making less than a triple digit salary has exactly 32 hours a week, or whatever is legally permissible to pass as “part time work” in your country.

          You’ve provided a fantastic common-sense solution designed off the simple premise that no one needs 12x of a living wage, and I can’t agree enough, but I know the capitalists would fuck it up at every stage possible, while simultaneously arguing that they’re justified in doing so because the method of economy that they worships has given them moral purchase to look down on the poors.

    They are asking the impossible. If they refuse to take any risks on new titles they will not have breakout hits like they are wanting. They have enough studios that you can have some stinker releases that get offset by the surprise hits.

      The best part is, once they get a surprise hit they can fold the studio and lay everyone off, ensuring that nobody but Execs reap the rewards!
