Pete Parsons is simply the latest example of "bleedership"

When talent-less c-suite leeches prioritize their excessive compensation over the talent of the studio that enabled them, that pretty much defines what I call soul-less bleedership, And I didn't think it was possible for me to hate on someone more than Luke "Sunsetting" Smith. After 4000+ hours over 10 years and all that silver on 3 platforms, Parsons has made me feel like a complete -blam!- for thinking that the studio was in good hands. Also good job completely sullying all the great work that the Foundation does.

  • There is a reason why "mediocre white men fail upwards" is a saying. It happened with Weiss and Benioff, and look at the smoldering, molten corpse they left behind with "Game of Thrones". It happened with Zack Snyder, and people are still leaping to give him opportunities, despite his new Rebel Moon movies being unoriginal trainwrecks. Parsons is no different, and he's mostly insulated from consequences because he happens to be at the top of the company already. To put it bluntly, he and executives like him are cancers. They are only concerned with growing their wealth more and more to feed their opulent lifestyle, and will eagerly lay off the employees below if it means sustaining that lifestyle, even if it eventually comes at the cost of the entire company's health. Only time will tell if being under Sony means Parsons and the rest of the C-Suite's time is numbered.
