So you are telling me that the company tried to save money by not giving the exec what he deserved by sabotaging the conditions for his bonus? How is that relevant here? You just provided evidence that private companies work hard to not pay execs those bonuses to save money, that goes directly against what you are arguing. If they were as wasteful as you said and as willing to give out such bonuses they wouldn't have cared, but you yourself said they did. In the end the private sector wants to make money, that includes clawing back bonuses promised to execs etc, they want to save money however they can. The same can't be said for the public sector. That makes them entirely different.
