John Riccitiello, CEO of Unity, the company whose 3D game engine had recently seen backlash from developers over proposed fee structures, will retire as CEO, president, and board chairman at the company, according to a press release issued late on a Monday afternoon, one many observe as a holiday.

    Nah once they're CEOs they're good. They just go sit on various boards making millions for doing relatively nothing.

      “I just voted to keep employee pay low. Now I have to go fly my private jet around to justify the cost of owning it. Bye!”

      I thought VPs already didn't really do anything, but being on the board and meeting 2 or 3 times a year is definitely less.

      Yup, my uncle was a CEO, and his monthly house payment is more than I make in a year… even combining my significant other’s salary. I do not like this timeline.
