How about the CEO shaves off 2% of their salary to keep those people on for a year?

(The joke is that the EA CEO is unfathomably overpaid, that that amount COULD sustain 600 people)

How much did the CEO increase profits though? I literally have no idea. If he implemented dlc, micro transactions, battle passes, and all that other crap, maybe he is or was worth his insane salary.
