  Corporate brain rot on full display.

  Everyone knew it was asinine, and now they’ve finally confirmed it.

  Everyone involved should be fired and bonuses clawed back if the board had a spine.

  Or maybe it’s just some BCG consultant bullshit where they deliberately tank a company to short the stock or whatever. Hard to believe it’s real people making such awful decisions…
