Big if true. (It's true)
Oh, boy, guys I didn't expect to see y'all over here. I knew the vote was talked about, but reading it. Is something else entirely.
See, the Major individual share holder, being the chairman, gives him the ability to recommens his employees - the executives. The executives jobs are to make the board money. But now, Mr. Cohen is the Able to directly make changes to usher in profits on his own behalf.
Gamestop has essentially undergone a "adversarial recovery." Hes undone the possibility of a hostile takeover, as he wants his billions to make billions.

Have been OOTL for a while, something happened?
- June 9, 2021 - Ryan Cohen becomes chairman of the board of directors, replaces the entire board with his own people, Matt Furlong becomes CEO
- June 7, 2023 - Matt Furlong out as CEO, Ryan Cohen becomes "executive chairman"
- September 28, 2023 - Ryan Cohen is now CEO
Ok but was something wrong with Matt is what I meant?
at this point I think it is inconclusive.
It's possible that there was in fact a problem with Matt. RC has made commentary about overpaid CEOs / executives in the past.
Some people speculate that Matt Furlong still has a role to play in this saga, though there isn't necessarily strong evidence for that.
His pay was public wasn't it?
Yes. his salary was $200k per year, plus stock options worth multiple millions.
Oh I thought all c-suits were paid in stocks options only (it's really been a while 😂)
My opinion: what was wrong with Matt Furlong was that he lost $50 million.
"GameStop fired its CEO, Matt Furlong, and elevated Ryan Cohen to executive chairman, the company announced on Wednesday. [...] GameStop (GME) also reported a net loss of $50.5 million [...] The loss comes just a few months after GameStop (GME) reported its first quarterly profit in two years."
