Given that they plan to keep Bobby Kotick on, I don't think Microsoft understands the problem with ABK all that well.

- disgruntledphd2 5y agoLook, you almost never fire the CEO of an acquired company immediately, but I'd be very surprised if he's still there in 18 months.
- ohgodplsno 5y agoThe press release says they're keeping Kotick for the duration of the transition, then everyone will report to Phil Spencer. Seems likely that Kotick will be gone soon(ish)
