Comment on Microsoft CEO's pay rises 63% to $79m, despite devastating year for layoffs: 2550 jobs lost in 2024

  OK.

  The CEO is supposed to maximize the profits of investors or owners or whatever, not act like in this example.

  Just like the government to which you pay taxes is supposed to use it for some public good.

  Neither do what they are supposed to do, because that requires some kind of checks by a mechanism above both, and there’s no such.

  Is that more clear, or have my bad English and bad explaining skills failed you again?

    This is much better but your previous comment was awful. It read like a LLM alone wrote it.

    That being said I can’t tell you why specifically it reads like that. I’m forwarding it to my friend who is a English professor to find out. If English is your second language then just keep at it and please don’t take the criticism here personally.

      Inconsistency of style most likely.
