I'm glad this happened in such a public way. I once heard him speak at a VC event about his firing practices with the same sort of attitude. I won't get into the details, but I was shocked that such an individual could be so championed, but he's quite business savvy and very personable... I guess as long as you're on his good side.
Very good fit for Zynga.

- Macsenour 15y agoI had the same thought. His "explanation" read like spin to me. Which fits well with the Zynga style.
- moocow01 15y agoI'm glad these management types cluster at Zynga - its hopefully a few less we all have to deal with everywhere else
- robgough 15y agoI wonder if people said the same thing about EA? And look where that got us :(
- sbisker 15y agoI'd be curious to hear what some of his "firing practices" were, if you wouldn't mind sharing. You seem reticent to get into details, perhaps not to add fuel to the fire - but these were practices he spoke publicly and proudly about, on the record, if I understand you correctly - and I'm curious just how people like him tick (if only so I can learn to avoid them).
