GameStop's New Billionaire Boss Calls For 'Extreme Frugality' In Email To Staff
Ryan specifically says
“I’m not getting paid, so I’m either going down with the ship or turning the company around. I much prefer the latter.”
I assume he’s not taking a salary for his role. I highly doubt that extends to the rest of the c suite though.
Undoubtedly.
Who thinks he’s being the CEO out of the good in his heart?
Yes, and he’ll do the old “force austerity to temporarily drive up profit margins for a quarter or two, then once it’s clear the next quarter will be crap, sell all of the stock that was awarded (auspiciously with a very short vesting window, if not just given outright)”
Typical bs, probably worth shorting this stock over the next year or so
he isn’t getting paid for any of this
Ah yes, billionaires making business decisions out of the kindness of their heart. Super likely.
These people don’t make the bulk of their wealth through a paycheck.
No shit, he’s an activist that bought in and turned the company around when it run into the ground by consultants working for short sellers. He owns about 15%
Now compare than to executives with no personal stake in their company, making millions in salary and not giving a fuck about anyone else
