If they remove 1 CEO they'll save the same amount of money and have more capacity to actually create something rather than a useless CEO doing fuck all but Microslop killing itself is it's own reward.

    Employees should absolutley organize and stop work right now until Slopya resigns.

    However, that's exactly why this is a voluntary program first. A little bread upfront so you don't get too angry to hold anyone accountable.

    And then the rest of the layoffs will follow, exactly like last time.

    I don't know if Microsoft employees are actually dissatisfied with Satya's leadership.

    Most of them own Microsoft stock so when the company does dumb shit like this that raise their stock price, they all personally get richer.

    I get your point, but if the avg person makes for example 100k/year that would mean 6 billion in savings (at some point). I doubt the CEO's salary is that high

    An that's 6 billion that's circulating and not just sitting in Bill Gates account doing nothing.

    Stagnant capital devalues the currency and the longer the rich refuse to let go the worse it will get, money needs to move around.
