Capitalism. Nothing worse than a CEO for a product to be honest. Being able to overrule engineers and workers is literally the problem with capitalism. A guy with ungodly money vs actual boots on the ground professionals. Disgusting
it doesnt end at ceos. i can think of one prominent, and fairly recent, incident where a different automaker knew of a defect before the product launched, and overruled fixing it because it was cheaper to leave it be. and that directly led to people dying. yet gm cars are still sold around the world and most people have forgotten about the ignition incidents. afaik the ceo was never involved in that decision.
You mean one man with a sapphire spoon shoved up his ass from birth doesn’t know more than an army of folks that have studied their entire lives, experienced worlds of issues around it, and are living and breathing this stuff everyday for this exact challenge? HUH! Well today I learned! /s
And when the lay offs come, who does it affect more? The billionaire douche bag? Or the people that warned him?
