I think most people don’t realize how unusual their company structure is. It feels like it’s set up to let them do exactly that. As far as I can tell, once you look past the smoke and mirrors, the board effectively controls both the non-profit and the for-profit.
I think the outcome of the last few days is that the nonprofit board controls nothing and serves at the pleasure of the for-profit company’s investors.
