>McJob wagie thinks he knows how businesses work

Founders or CEOs are often fired by a vote of the company’s board. If the individual at the center of the drama does not own a controlling share of the company, there is little they can do to prevent themselves from being ousted. Michael L.F. Slavin wrote that he once fired his own co-founder. Each of them owned 46.75 percent of the company, but Slavin was able to convince their four investors, who owned the remaining 6.5 percent, to give him a proxy to vote their shares. Now controlling 53.25 percent, he presented his partner with a buyout offer.

Ownership share ultimately leads to a loss of control over the company. As companies bring in outside investors, their shares are diluted. Founders often end up owning less than 50 percent of the company’s shares, leaving them vulnerable to being fired. Similarly, CEOs that have contracts might find themselves fired once that contract is concluded due to new ownership or change in company direction.

This should be a celebratory sticky DESU

I wish my Shepherd could be Jonathan Frakes

He's literally never been wrong though

Randy owns gearbox.

He's also the owner, so unless he fires himself it's not happening.
You're 12 years old, come back when you're of age.

There is something annoying about this Quartening guy. I cant stand him.

Yes but Gearbox isn't publicly traded and Randy Bobandy owns the company.

randy pitchford does not own gearbox dunno where you think you got that.

>quarterpounder and carlos mencia are your sources

As Gearbox is a private company, we have no idea who actually owns how many shares.
If randy owns less than 50%, then sure, everyone else together can take him down
But given the company story, i find its much more likely Randy is the majority owner

If Jonathan Frakes were my dad, things would be different around here.

>A tranny nigger

>twitter
Doesn't Andy own Gearbox anyway?

Gearbox is a private company. Pitchford is both present, CEO, and likely the controlling owner. He would have had to engage in George Broussard levels of incompetence or get EA levels of fuckery out of Sega (which isn't in a great position to actually do so) to get ejected with all that in his favor.

>Mencia
Whatever happened to that dude? Does he still send out sad tweets about being lonely and seeing if any fans will join him for lunch?

where can you look up who owns what stake in gearbox?

Randy can't be terminated in his privately owned company unless he fucked up so hard to lose his majority shares to someone else.

lemonparty.org

You can't because it isn't publicly traded. But Randy is one of the founders and owners, probably the majority owner.

Jesus this brings me back

Nice, now i'm going to pirate that game.

ah, US laws

>probably the majority owner.

bzzzzzzt wrong

gearbox almost went bankrupt and was bailed out by investors

randy probably owns like 10%

imagine being this retard

I'm sure you have a source for that. Nobody would invest in Randy's company.

It would take a lot to bring him down. He would have to do some pretty illegal shit and be publicly outed hard/arrested for him to be fired.

That, or doing something stupid enough to cause Take Two to either pull funding or outright buy out Gearbox and strip the company of its upper management.

I don't think you have to imagine that

The only reason I think this is fake is that Bobandy is definitely dumb enough to put out a storm of poorly made tweets defending himself and accusing others.

Jizzbrain.

>thequartering fags on Yea Forums
Christ you people have the worat taste. Let me guess, you went to cripplechan too.

this because of the epstein list or the sending goons/threats to the streamers house thing?

I believe this guy
Does nobody remember what a major high profile disastrous flop that battle-whatever game was?
That was literally Randy's only plan for the company's future and spent half a decade developing it, and everyone forgot about it after like a week

>the worat taste

The meme "Source: Dude trust me" needs to evolve at this point.

Randy the magician isn't even remotely high profile enough to have known Epstein,

You say that, but Randy is also known for taking other publisher's money to make something within his own interests. He basically made Borderlands 2 for free and that's the series that prints his company money.

well, that + mencia admitting "of course I steal jokes who wouldn't?" as a point of pride during a documentary

This. Im about to drive to get one.

Yeah, this sort of supports Randy getting Das But. The same thing happened with THQ. They dumped hundreds of millions into the development of some Pictionary/art studio game they fully expected to be the next Guitar Hero. When that didn't happen, it completely tanked the company.

Oh shit.

Does this guy make a habit of fabricating objective facts like this?
Assuming he still has a job and nothing's happened, is whatever reputation this guy has tarnished?

Don't get my hopes up like that, OP.

Wasn’t this guy a paedo?

They weren’t this is all fake news. The dude pocketed 12 million from his own company and left a USB drive with sensitive company related data and porn on it, but there was nothing underage on it. The dudes fucked up but all the gleeful twatter rejects claiming he’s a pedo are spreading fake news.

you're all right in that Gearbox is privately held.

but that just makes it easier. All it takes is a board of directors/investors to want him out and he's gone. They don't have to worry about "buying out" anything. they just give you two options, either "resign" and get a nice severance package and leave with some dignity, or they publicly force you out and carry that shame.
