Actually "rationalising the pipeline" would be getting rid of all the massively overpaid execs, rather than the people who actually make the Take-Two execs their money

Absolutely sickening. Yeah, we can't afford you people actually doing the money making and Jeremy's new yacht. It was a tough decision, i swear

Not defending corporations but these massive conglomerates usually get so intricate, so messy, that there are people who end up getting a paycheck that genuinely do not get assignments. In other words, getting paid to watch paint dry. So sometimes the comments that look terrible are directed at people who were doing nothing or very nearly nothing and still getting paid for it.

But yes also fuck executives getting x80 the pay of developers.

People always say this, but the execs and board members making obscene money for doing as little a possible is the whole point of the endeavor.
