Somebody in the new management probably needed to stir things up and show that they have a vision and direction that will take the company to new heights, which includes drastic measures like firing those holding the company back, or who were unwilling to be reduced in compensation and scope.
- runeofdoom 3y agoThis. Over two decades, I have yet to see new senior management who didn't feel compelled to 'make their mark' on their new territory by changing something significant. Occassionally, they'll actually do something useful, but usually they take something that worked and break it.
- jstarfish 3y agoI don't think it's incompetence or egomania anymore; I think it's outright sadism. Some of these corporate sociopaths (Shkreli) don't even try to conceal their intentions because nothing ever happens to any of them anyway. It wasn't the hijinks with the Epi-pen pricing that sent Shkreli to prison. Find something sentimental to someone, and smash it while they watch. People can't coordinate resistance against you when they're emotional. Hurt them deep enough and they give up. Then you can replace them with sycophants.
