DCH63:
Your analogy is entirely accurate. BGA and the board are stuck in the Fuhrer Bunker making majestically grandiose sweeps of their hands directing imaginary Army Divisions across Europe when the reality is Russian infantry are firing on the Reichstag.
And they are similarly deluded. The management ethos is the same, the paranoia is the same and the total disconnect between Dear Leader and 'The Troops' is as pronounced. Add to that the simply laughable Engagement Survey results increase (when apparently their bonuses depend on same) and you get a workforce that now is openly despising its management.
Questions for Fed Sec:
Is it true the bonus/pay structure you enjoy is based at least in part by positive Engagement Survey results?
If you have demonstrably destroyed shareholder value in this company, then what penalty have you paid or would you think is reasonable? Or expressed otherwise, If one person removed/stole $xx BILLiON/million from the company (for his/her own benefit?) then how would you treat them as an employee?
