It sounds like ESW is buying companies where the creative work was finished years ago. The policy appears to be freezing innovation and cutting costs to profit from existing contracts. I suspect the goal is not longevity. It’s also uncertain the company under highly paid and creative stewardship would not also fizzle out after a decade or two.
