Jack Welch at General Electric. Granted it wasn't a tech company though.

  He was fawned over at the time, but Welch is finally being assigned his share of blame for gutting GE.

    GE became profitable, it was just not GE anymore but some monstrosity that became a finance firm instead of an engineering one. You can see some similarity to Boeing after having MD's management taking over, accounting-wise it's working, engineering-wise it's fallen deep into a pit of issues.

  He took one of the most valuable and enduring companies in American history and destroyed it completely. It no longer exists.

    So you're saying it's an apt comparison? Ha.

    Yes, but he did it slowly, and at great profit to himself. Totally different than Musk!
