It is obvious by the tone and tenor of some of the posts they are not from corporate America. And if they were or are they were obviously not high enough up in the pyramid to understand or know how things sometimes work.

What if.....just what if her job was to get the company positioned to be able to "lay off thousands" (very unpopular), to close down plants (very expensive) clean up the balance sheet by dumping select assets and do the very best that could be expected while writing off or writing down these assets (all of which could be a huge hit to earnings).

She gets the job done. The current results do not look very good at all as a result of actions taken (expected). The company is now positioned to be leaner in physical as well as monetary assets, well positioned for improved financial results in the near term (?). She agrees to take the public beating that goes with the poor results. She gets $21 million to go on her merry way.

Now the above could well be a hypothesis. It could also be something akin to what really happened.

When it comes to what gets said and done at the CEO level and the board of directors level and what gets published for public consumption do not have to match. It just has to be legal or not illegal.

Just musing out loud!

The woman is more capable than Obama as a elected POTUS. She is more capable than he is today. She makes Clinton look and sound like a political dinosaur.

If Obama were measured for results.....promises made VS promised kept as they do in the corporate world, he would not have made it through a second year.....let alone 6!!!!
