Dude,he’s under contract we can’t do anything about it it’s a company it’s their decision .

Why should it?

CEO gets a paycheck, news at 11.

The fact that he’s getting that bonus through a loophole isn’t good. That loophole should be closed, but I do not care at all about what someone else, who isn’t me, gets paid.

You know, in Japan if a company is doing poor enough that there are layoffs, then the CEO will take a pay cut to fix the company. Of course, in America the little guy can suck it, right?

And that is because businesses are run very differently in Japan. It’s a very similar case in China as well. CEO packages do not give as much deference to shareholders as they do in the realm of western capitalism.

You effectively put yourself in this position, by allowing CEOs to gain all this power and focus on putting shareholders first, and now you’re upset when CEOs do exactly what you told them they could do for years.

And mind you, this system is never going to change. You’re not going to be able to convince CEOs to switch to a model that gives them less money after decades of using this model, you’re also not going to be able to convince shareholders to give up their growth and profit margins. This pit that you’re in is one that is only going to grow deeper, and there’s no climbing out of it.

The real problem is that we are okay with it. How many devs and employees have to get kicked to the floor so that the top guys can get more money before anyone actually cares?

I don’t see you doing anything regarding the other richer people in the world getting even more rich than 0.5 seconds ago.

It’s a bit hypocrit.

While I dislike people losing jobs the entire e-sports scene is what ruined this game.

Why should I care what people in Japan do in that situation any more than I should waste energy on some rich guy that got richer(which is by the way not news it happens everyday)?

When you figure out how to change things let us know.

Except the layoffs had nothing to do with poor business, it’s redundancy, the jobs aren’t needed

Exactly, the bonus was so big because the company hit profit milestones written into his contract.

No need to fix a company hitting profit milestones

When Americans as a people rise up and make an enemy of the rich.

You are far from such a revolution.

you know how you show you care?

stop giving them money.

goodbye. can I have your stuff?

BUT OH WAIT you don’t actually care now, do you?

ps: I personally do not care. Sucks that people lost their jobs. Companies restructure all the time. I’m not going to get all bent every time it happens.

It means no more than these other topics – why did you have to make a new one with absolutely zero to add to the others?

In Japan there is a high suicide rate overall from overworking and the work climate. Really poor choice in examples.

I don’t think they practice that model any more ,including match making.
