      Corporate America is making a profit for shareholders by offering a service that in demand. These activists are just siphoning money into personal projects and padding their wallets without offering an actual profitable service. Basically they're going to leach the company into the ground and move on to another one eventually. Rinse and repeat like so many others.

So it's a logical choice for Firefox power users.

      I don't think so. Developers are great at developing. Not many are great at managing a company. Management skills take time to build. Bad management is often guys who are really good at their jobs but not great at managing. Once they're in charge of a team, they know all the ways to slack off, but they don't know how to address it or how to improve the team even though they've thought about it in the past. Reality meets fantasy and suddenly those solutions they though of don't work in practice. Then they get grumpy and bitter or just try to wing it with bad results.
      Also, the CEO is on call 24/7. A good CEO is worth way more than double the salary of a developer. They make or break the company regardless of what the plebs want to believe. I mean we're looking at the results of a bad CEO and its horrendous what's happening to this company.

      @@randallsanchez3161 The biggest problem with your statement is that the vast majority of managers and corporates are not great at managing companies either, which is exactly where Mozilla is now. Consider Ms. Baker, jacking up her pay while contributing arguably nothing. Your statement is just the same worn-out excuse for "we gotta place the incompetents somewhere, so why not the C-Suite?"
      So much better to have someone with at least some actual technical chops and system knowledge in charge; they can also actually fill in if there is turnover.
      In this case, all the technically competent have fled, and mostly what's left are McManagers who, although they answer to the CEO, apparently can't actually DO much, other than tick all the exact same boxes you mentioned about bad technical managers, and hire more managers in attempt to fill the competence gap, thus metastasizing their inefficient ranks while turning their organization into an overly complex, cubicled tower of babel.
      And here we see the self-evident decline from precisely your paradigm.
