As a shareholder of many companies, I would be disappointed if the management team made decisions that disproportionately benefited employees at the expense of other non-employee shareholders.
- RobotCaleb 1y agoYeah, because you as the shareholder are worth more to the company and society than the people at the company.
- yunyu 1y agoThe goal of most companies is to maximize returns to shareholders, not society or employees. If it wasn't that I wouldn't have invested.
- RobotCaleb 1y agoI'm not saying that you're wrong, just implying that it's not right.
