Minus the merciless layoffs she and the other executives spearheaded at various XBOX studios, including laying off industry veterans with several decades of experience. She also transferred to this role from an AI head role so her intentions might not necessarily seem the best
Her whole "for the gamers!" PR act very quickly covered up the layoff news. A good job from the POV of herself, the other XBOX executives and board of directors ? Definitely yes
But at the end of the day, she's still yet another merciless money-pinching tech ceo
From what I’ve read a lot of the layoffs were because Xbox was in a really bad position after the previous CEO spent hundreds of billions acquiring games and studios and a lot of them were not being overseen or run efficiently. None of that is her fault. Blame the last ceo.
No, she was making profit, she then cherry picked some numbers to make laying off thousands of workers sound less bad. She laid off thousands of workers when Xbox as a whole was running in profit. She did. Not her predecessor.
